Personnel Transfers Clause Samples
Personnel Transfers. 1. The Town and Union/Unit agree that schedule changes (shift transfers) should only be conducted when the Department has exhausted all other scheduling options. When a transfer or assignment is required the Fire Chief shall provide the employee with fourteen (14) days advance notice.
2. The Fire Chief may make transfers for emergency reasons exclusive of the above after notification to the Union/Unit and affected members.
3. An employee’s change in job classification requires mutual agreement between the Department and the Unit.
Personnel Transfers. For the purpose of this Section, a transfer is an official move of an Employee’s work assignment requiring paperwork to be sent to, and signed off by, the Human Resources Department. It does not include the daily arrangement of staffing of a temporary nature to ensure adequate staffing levels. It is the express intent of this Section to put in place a process that significantly limits the annual number of involuntary transfers, with the stated goal of this Section to maintain an annual number of total involuntary transfers of Employees with more than four years’ continuous service with the Fire Department to less than 5% of the workforce. For the purpose of this section, an “involuntary transfer” will be defined as the rotation of non-probationary personnel for reasons other than request, promotion, or demotion of that Employee. This is not subject to the grievance/arbitration procedure. With the exceptions found in this Article, transfer decisions are a management right. Prior to management making transfers (including when a position becomes vacant), an email notification will be sent to all Employees notifying them that transfer(s) are under consideration. Employees may make a written request through their chain of command to transfer to a different shift, station, where they would continue to operate in the same job classification. The request will only be considered for that posting. In extenuating circumstances, management may make transfers without the required notification of all members, but only after notifying the Union that it will be occurring. All transfers will be based upon departmental needs, such as:
1. Balancing the number of personnel at each station and on each shift due to retirements, resignations, promotions, or transfers.
2. Address personnel issues, including disciplinary action.
3. By request of an Employee.
4. Making promotions, demotions, and lateral transfers.
5. Opening, closing, relocating fire stations.
