ALTERNATIVE EMPLOYMENT WITHIN THE COMPANY. (a) Wherever it is possible to effect a transfer, the parties to the Agreement will ascertain by interviewing each redundant employee whether or not he wishes to be transferred to another location within the Company. (b) Where an employee accepts a transfer in a case where Clause 1(a)(iii) does not apply, the parties will be covered by the redundancy agreement if within twelve weeks of the transfer: (i) the employee does not wish to continue with his employment and leaves the service of the Company; or (ii) the Company decides that the employee is not suited to the job to which he was transferred, and no other alternative employment which is acceptable to the parties, can be found. (c) In any retraining programme, an employee associated with such alternative employment in the Company, shall be paid the all-purpose wage rate for the new position while undergoing training for that position.
