Indiana § 4-15-2.2-35

• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Art. 15: PERSONNEL ADMINISTRATION
• Ch. 2.2: State Civil Service System

Text

(a) An appointing authority may at any time
reassign an employee from one (1) position to another position in the
same class or rank in the division of the service. The appointing
authority shall, immediately after making the reassignment, give notice
of the reassignment to the director.
(b) The transfer of a classified employee from a position in a
division of the service to a position of the same class or rank in another
division of the service requires the approval of:
(1) the appointing authorities of both divisions of the service; and
(2) the director.
(c) A classified employee must be appointed, rather than transferred,
to a position:
(1) in another class of a higher rank; or
(2) for which the requirements for appointment are substantially
dissimilar to the requirements for the position the employee
currently holds.
(d) The reassignment of a classified employee to a position in a
class of a lower rank is a demotion. Unless the employee consents to
the demotion in writing, the appointing authority must comply with
section 23 of this chapter in making the demotion. A classified
employee is entitled to appeal the demotion in accordance with section
42 of this chapter.
(e) This section may not be construed to prohibit an appointing
authority from temporarily substituting duties unrelated to an
employee's position classification for the employee's usual duties.
(f) This section may not be construed to impair the director's
authority to reclassify or reorganize positions in the state civil service
as long as the reclassification or reorganization is not based on a
classified employee's misconduct or poor performance. The just cause
standard described in section 23 of this chapter does not apply to such
a reclassification or reorganization.
