Seniority means that an employer considers date of hire a factor in deciding workplace benefits like promotions, leave schedules, days off, shifts, overtime, and selection for training.

Mere length of service is no assurance of skill or good conduct, only experience. In most cases, employers rely on an employees seniority only when all other criteria have been met and a decision between two equally eligible employees must be made. Employers who rely only on seniority for making decisions may have high turnover rates because they're not putting the in any effort to develop employees.
