Assignment and Involuntary Transfer Clause Samples
The Assignment and Involuntary Transfer clause governs whether and how a party may transfer its rights or obligations under the contract to another party, either voluntarily or as a result of events beyond its control, such as bankruptcy or merger. Typically, this clause requires one party to obtain the other party’s written consent before assigning the agreement, and may specify exceptions or procedures for involuntary transfers. Its core function is to ensure that both parties retain control over who they are contractually bound to, thereby preventing unwanted or unexpected changes in the contractual relationship.
Assignment and Involuntary Transfer. Involuntary transfers may be made by the superintendent or the superintendent’s designee as the needs of the system require. Notification of an involuntary transfer will be given to an employee as soon as possible but not less than twenty (20) calendar days, except in case of emergency, in advance of the intended transfer. The involuntary transfer will be made only after a meeting between the employee and the appropriate supervisor at which time the employee shall be notified of the reason for the transfer. Whenever possible the employee will be transferred to a work location within the same geographic area. In the event the transfer is not in the employee’s desired geographic area, the transferred employee shall be given primary consideration for any opening in the desired geographic area for a minimum of two (2) school years. Involuntary transfers based on reasons other than the ability to perform essential functions will be affected, whenever possible, beginning with the employees having the least service within the classification at the location.
