Redeployment to a Lower Classification Clause Samples

Redeployment to a Lower Classification. 3.1 An under-utilised employee being considered for redeployment may indicate a willingness to accept an alternative position (where available and within reasonable time frames) at a classification level lower than their substantive classification level. 3.2 Regardless of the employee's new classification level, the employee shall not be paid less than one (1) classification level lower than their previous substantive position. In these circumstances the employee’s salary will be pegged at their pre-deployment level until the one (1) level below catches up so that any future wage/salary increases will be absorbed until such time as the rate of pay applicable to the redeployed position catches up. 3.3 A employee who takes up an alternative position at a classification level lower than their substantive classification level cannot be compelled to work at or take another position at a lower level than the alternative position for a period of two (2) years from the date of commencement in the alternative position.
