§ 123820 Employee Transfer Protection

Key Takeaways

  • •If you worked for the Director of Benefit Payments on July 1, 1978, and weren't a temp worker, you got moved to a new department.
  • •Your job, pay, and rights stayed the same after the move, just like before.
  • •This rule doesn’t apply to jobs that don’t follow normal state worker rules.

Example

Imagine you worked at a government office helping people with benefits, and you weren’t a temp worker.

On July 1, 1978, your job got moved to a new department, but your pay, job title, and rights stayed exactly the same. You didn’t lose anything just because your office changed.
