Lateral Transfer. When an employee serving in a class in which the vacancy exists applied in a timely fashion for transfer to the position, he/she shall be granted the transfer. When two or more employees serving in the class in which the vacancy exists apply for transfer to the position, transfer will be based on comparative evaluations, job related knowledge, skills, abilities and experience. In the event of two or more applicants with equal qualifications; seniority shall be the deciding factor. The sole exception to this provision shall be the initial authority of the Transportation Supervisor to object in writing to the requested transfer of a bus driver when, in his/her opinion, such transfer would create a potentially unsafe situation. The effected employees’ avenue of appeal to the supervisor’s objection is through the grievance procedure provided in this agreement.
