How about:

    HR CAN by announcement add all unemployed players to the bottom of
    the firm in a specified order. Whenever e does so, e SHALL choose
    the order randomly. Whenever a player is unemployed, HR SHALL add
    them to the firm in a timely fashion.

Not exactly what you describe, but maybe a bit simpler to describe, and
HR's extra discretion here seems more interesting than harmful.

Might as well remove the rest of the paragraph too.
