Transfer of Function. A. A transfer of function is the transfer of the performance of a continuing function from one competitive area and its addition to one or more other competitive areas, except when the function involved is virtually identical to functions already being performed in the other competitive area(s) effected; or, the movement of the competitive area in which the function is performed to another commuting area. In a transfer of function, the operation of the function must cease in one competitive area and must be carried on in an identifiable form in another competitive area where it was not being performed at the time of the transfer. B. In the event the Agency finds it necessary to exercise its authority to conduct a transfer of function, NTEU will be provided advance notice and the opportunity to bargain in accordance with the procedures contained in Article 26: Bargaining.
