An employee may only  transfer from one position to another  within their pay range. Please refer to all appropriate labor agreements for provisions regarding transfers.

Interdepartmental Transfers: transfer to another position within the same title and the same pay range in another department; or transfer to another position with a different title and the same  pay range in another department. Please Note: Seasonal and hourly employees are not eligible for interdepartmental transfers.

Intradepartmental Transfers: to qualify for a position with a different title and the same pay range within the same department. (You must complete an on-line application and an intradepartmental transfer form in your department). Please note: Seasonal and hourly employees are eligible for intradepartmental transfers only.
