Title 1240 - Human Services
Subtitle 1240-06 - Tennessee Business Enterprises
Chapter 1240-06-05 - Assignment of Managers
Section 1240-06-05-.03 - TRANSFERS
Current through September 24, 2024
(1) The intent of a transfer is to assure, insofar as possible, employment for a manager who faces displacement not attributable to his/her conduct, attitude or lack of performance. A transfer shall not result in a substantial financial advantage or disadvantage to the manager. In order to assure the effectiveness of this provision, the manager's sales for the preceding twelve (12) months shall be calculated and compared to the projected sales on the bid announcement. The greater of these two numbers shall be used to determine the range of transfer eligibility. If a vacant facility for which the manager is certified and which produces sales equal to those calculated for the displaced manager (meaning that sales may be fifteen percent (15%) above or fifteen percent (15%) below those calculated), then the manager may be considered, depending upon the manager's seniority and the number of other managers competing for the same facility.
(2) Transfer eligibility may be established if:
(3) Transfer eligibility is valid for a period of two (2) years, during which seniority continues to accrue and eligibility is maintained for all benefits. If a manager remains in his/her facility while on transfer status and the circumstances at the facility have not improved, the manager may reapply for transfer status at the end of the two-year period provided the manager has not declined a facility which falls within his/her range.
(4) Transfer eligibility is lost if the manager bids on and receives the award of a facility which produces sales within or which exceeds the manager's transfer range, or the manager declines an award based on his/her transfer eligibility.
