• Internal Transfer 鈥� The shift of an employee from one position to another of the same classification or to one with comparable skills and in the same general pay range in the same institution. 

The employee who is affected by an internal transfer will continue all benefits uninterrupted. The employee will not restart the provisional period. 

• External Transfer 鈥� The movement of an employee from a position at one institution within the University System to a position at another institution or to/from the University System Office. Since institutional compensation practices may differ due to market conditions, the transfer may be to a position at a different pay range, but the provisions of this transfer policy shall apply.

In the event of an external transfer, accumulated sick leave, retirement benefits and service continuity will be transferred if the break in service does not exceed thirty (30) calendar days. When the external transfer occurs with no break in service, an employee must transfer accrued vacation leave of between one (1) and twenty (20) days. For employees with accrued vacation leave of greater than twenty (20) days, the employee may elect one of the following options: 

• • Transfer of the total accrued vacation balance, not to exceed forty-five (45) days. 
    
    
  • Payment by the institution from which the employee is moving of accrued vacation leave greater than twenty (20) days. The total accrued vacation leave for which the employee may be paid shall not exceed twenty-five (25) days. 

The transferring employee will restart the provisional period at the new location effective on the first day of employment and serve their first six (6) months in a provisional status, subject to all terms and conditions of the provisional period policy. 

When an employee terminates from one institution and is then hired by another System institution, this shall not constitute an external transfer. If the termination and subsequent hiring occurs with less than thirty (30) days between the actions, the Chief Human Resources Officer of new employer may choose to treat such an action as an external transfer under this policy at their sole discretion. 

This policy ensures consistency among institutions of the University System regarding the transfer of employees with the institution and from one University System institution to another, including the University System office. 

The policy also ensures consistency as necessary for meeting applicable reporting requirements while also affording the appropriate level of flexibility needed at the institutional level.
