Common use of Administrative Transfer Procedures Clause in Contracts

Administrative Transfer Procedures. An involuntary transfer of an employee is one instituted by the District. Involuntary transfers may occur at any time at the discretion of the District. The District shall make a reasonable effort to notify the employee at least five (5) working days prior to the effective date of an involuntary transfer. Any employee who is involuntarily transferred shall, upon request, be informed in writing of the reason(s) for the transfer from the appropriate administrator. The transferred employee may appeal the administrative transfer to the appropriate division head and may be represented by the Union in this appeal. No employee shall be involuntarily transferred for punitive or disciplinary reasons or in reprisal for the exercise of any right provided by this Agreement, except in cases that, as deemed by the District, keeping the employee at his/her current location would be detrimental to the health, welfare or safety of the employee, administrators, students, or other employees. Also, the transfer of any employee to or from a school designated as a “low performing school” is deemed to be non-disciplinary and non-punitive in nature. 2.1 When a transfer is necessitated by a loss of funding in a specially funded program that reduces the number of positions at a work location, the employee at the site in the affected classification with the most recent date of assignment to that classification shall be transferred first, except that consideration shall be given to employees who have volunteered for reassignment. Employees with special qualifications or those serving in a probationary period may be excepted from such transfers.
