Common use of Transfer To Another Unit Clause in Contracts

Transfer To Another Unit. Requests for transfer to another unit should be submitted in UWHIRES on-line. Transfer requests will be forwarded to the Nurse Manager for review prior to filling the vacant position through the transfer or promotional process. A good faith effort will be made to facilitate lateral transfers from one unit to another. All other factors relevant to the position being equal, seniority will be the determinant in such decisions. ● Unit seniority will be computed and exercised consistently within the RN2 and RN3 job classifications. Nurses who transfer to another unit will be granted 50% of their seniority not to exceed the median number of years of employment on the unit. ● Bargaining unit nurses who accept management roles and then return to their former bargaining unit position recoup 100% of their pre-management seniority. Nurse Managers moving to bargaining unit positions for the first time have no accumulated seniority. ● Nurses who transfer units recoup 100% of their pre-transfer seniority after eighteen months on the new unit. ● Bargaining unit nurses who move between RN2 and RN3 classifications retain 100% of their seniority.
