Inter-Department Transfer. An employee who holds a year around assignment may request a transfer from their department to another department provided that the employee meets the minimum qualifications and is qualified to perform the job duties for which they are requesting a transfer to and provided further that no year around employee in that department is laid off. When transferring from one department to another department, the employee’s seniority will be frozen in the vacated department. Mileage and travel pay will not be paid to any employee who accepts an inter- department transfer. A. Current employees will be given preferential hiring when applying for a position in another department covered under this Agreement as long as they successfully meet all hiring processes of the classification to which they have applied. A maximum number of ten (10) transfers will be allowed during each hiring season. WSF seniority will be the determining factor for granting allowable transfers.

If at anytime after retaining a full time year around position the employee transfers back to their previous department, their frozen seniority will be incorporated into their new seniority date.
