Unless specific requirements dictate otherwise, transfers and reassignments shall be on voluntary basis from among qualified employees. The most senior employee who is qualified to perform the duties of the position shall be entitled to the transfer or reassignment. If there are no qualified volunteers, the least senior qualified employee shall be transferred. In the event the least senior qualified employee has children of elementary or secondary school age, he/she shall be exempted from this provision in the event no schools are available in the new assignment area or if suitable educational arrangements for such children cannot be mutually agreed to. The MMA shall provide ninety (90) days advance notice of such relocations whenever possible, and in the event that less than ninety (90) days notice is provided, the MMA will pay reasonable temporary relocation expenses, pursuant the Lodging and Meals Article of this Agreement, for any period of less than 90 days notice. This Article does not apply to employees relocating in connection with any reduction in force or employees in job classes which traditionally have required performance of duties at other than a fixed location.
