Common use of Employee-Initiated Transfer/Reassignment Clause in Contracts

Employee-Initiated Transfer/Reassignment. The District recognizes the interests of unit members in seeking voluntary transfers. Accordingly, at least five (5) working days before a position is advertised externally, unit members meeting the minimum qualifications will be given consideration for voluntary transfer within the LRSA unit. To be considered for voluntary transfer, the unit member must submit a current application and a letter of interest to be considered for the vacant position to the Human Resources Office by the closing of the fifth working day. The unit member will be afforded an interview with the appropriate administrator and notified by the Human Resources Office of the results of the interview. When more than three (3) unit members request a transfer, the interviews may be limited to only the three (3) most qualified based on screening of applications. If none of the applicants for voluntary transfer are recommended for the position, their applications will be included in the general applicant pool for the position. However, this does not guarantee that they will be granted a second interview.
