Transfer Seniority Clause Samples

The Transfer Seniority clause establishes the order of priority or ranking that is maintained or adjusted when an employee or asset is transferred within an organization. In practice, this clause determines whether the individual or asset retains their original seniority status, or if their ranking is recalculated based on the new department or location's criteria. For example, an employee moving from one branch to another may keep their accumulated years of service for purposes such as promotions or layoffs. The core function of this clause is to ensure fairness and consistency in how seniority is recognized after a transfer, preventing disputes and clarifying expectations for all parties involved.
