HRD will waive this limited movement policy for qualified employees, who have received an official notification letter that their current position is being relocated due to an organizational restructuring initiative, so those employees can compete for a position elsewhere.

  • Probationary employees are precluded from being considered for all job opportunities until 12-months of their 24-month probationary period has concluded.
