Voluntary Reassignment. a. A unit member may request a reassignment from his/her current classification to a lower classification. The reassignment will only be approved if there is a vacant position in a lower classification. b. A unit member who accepts a voluntary reassignment will not be required to serve a probationary period in the new position. The unit member shall not have return rights to his/her former position. The unit member’s evaluation date shall be changed to reflect the hire date of the new position. The salary step advancement date, for purposes of step increases, shall not change. c. A unit member who receives a voluntary reassignment will be placed at the step of the appropriate range that will give the unit member a salary that is as close to being within five percent (5%) of his/her current salary as possible; this may result in a larger salary decrease (if no cell in the new classification pay rate is within 5%), but not an increase. When the unit member’s salary step advancement date and the effective date of the reassignment coincide, the salary step advancement increment shall be applied before the reassignment computation is made.
