Job bidding this is the process of a company posting notices of new job positions to give permanent employees the opportunity to apply. Bids are based on plant seniority and competency and fall into three categories: (1) up-bid, a bid from a lower to a higher pay grade; (2) downbid, a bid from a higher to a lower pay grade; and (3) lateral bid, a bid from one classification to another classification in the same pay grade.
