Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) Employees in the classified service of an
			 agency of the state government who have satisfactorily completed their
			 probationary period, or in the case of a new appointee who has completed their
			 probationary period , may be transferred to a position having
			 the same rate of pay and similar duties in another agency of the state
			 government, upon request of the two appointing authorities concerned, with
			 consent of the employee and approval of the director of administrative
			 services. Where the good of the service requires, such transfer may be made
			 without the approval of the appointing authority of the agency from which the
			 transfer is made.
(B) Employees in
			 the classified service of an agency in the state government who have
			 satisfactorily completed their probationary period, or in the case of a newly
			 appointed employee who has completed their probationary period
			 , may be transferred to positions of a similar classification
			 and having similar qualifications with a county agency, and employees in the
			 classified service of a county agency may be transferred to positions of a
			 similar classification and having similar qualifications in another agency of
			 the county or in another county or in an agency of the state government, upon
			 approval of the appointing authorities involved, with consent of the employee
			 and approval of the director of administrative services and the commission, if
			 applicable.
(C) Employees in the
			 classified service of an Ohio city who have satisfactorily completed their
			 probationary period, may be transferred to a county or state agency, and
			 employees in the classified service of a state or county agency may be
			 transferred to an Ohio city, where the positions involved are similar in duties
			 and qualifications, with the consent of the employee subject to approval by the
			 appointing authorities involved, the municipal civil service commission, and
			 the director of administrative services, if applicable.
(D) Within an agency of the state or county
			 government, an employee in the classified service may be intra-transferred
			 where the positions involved have the same classification title.
(E) Any of the types of transfer defined in
			 this rule may be permanent or temporary.
Temporary transfers of thirty days or less may be made without
				the consent of the employee. The employee shall have no right to appeal such
				temporary transfer unless the employee receives another temporary transfer
				within a six-month period.
(F) Temporary transfers for periods of more
			 than thirty days and less than ninety-one days may be made only with written
			 consent of the employee.
(G) A
			 "permanent transfer" is any transfer in excess of thirty days unless the
			 employee has consented to a longer period not exceeding ninety days.
(H) Written notice of any transfer and the
			 reasons therefore in writing shall be given to the employee concerned. This
			 notice shall be given at least fourteen calendar days prior to the effective
			 date of the change except where an emergency renders it impractical. Requests
			 for approval of all transfers shall be submitted to and approved by the
			 director of administrative services or his designee, and/or the commission, as
			 applicable. Each transfer action shall state the circumstances which make the
			 transfer necessary for the efficient operation of the agency. No permanent
			 transfer is to take effect until approval is secured by the initiating
			 appointing authority from the director of administrative services. The word
			 "transfer" as used in this rule shall not include any job reassignment within
			 the same classification, within the same appointing authority which takes place
			 in and involves a move to a different job location in the same
			 county.
(I) The following classes
			 have been designated as those where changes in the location of the employee's
			 work assignment are necessary:

A person considered for appointment to a position in such
				classes shall be informed of this policy in writing at the time of appointment
				or at the time of an examination. Those persons serving in such positions at
				the time of the adoption of this rule shall be informed of this policy in
				writing. The director shall approve such transfers without the submission of
				additional evidence. An employee serving in any of these classes shall have no
				right of appeal under paragraph (M) of this rule, but shall be given written
				notice of the transfer as provided in paragraph (H) of this rule. Transfers
				made under this paragraph shall be considered temporary transfers as defined in
				paragraphs (E) and (F) of this rule and be subject to the same restrictions
				placed on other temporary transfers. In no case shall transfers initiated under
				this paragraph be regarded as permanent.
(J) In the case of a request to transfer an
			 employee permanently, the director shall approve the transfer only if it is
			 determined to be necessary for the efficient operation of the work unit to
			 which the employee would be transferred.
(K) In the case of permanent transfer, where
			 the director determines that there is a need for a permanent change of
			 residence, the employee shall be paid the actual and necessary expenses of
			 moving to his or her new location. In addition, the employee shall be paid the
			 regular per diem rate for in-state travel as established by the office of
			 budget and management until his or her residence can be moved to his new
			 location, but for not more than thirty days. The employee shall notify his or
			 her appointing authority and the director of administrative services of his or
			 her intent to move or not to move his or her place of residence within thirty
			 days of receiving notification from the director of administrative services
			 that a change of residence is necessary, unless an appeal is pending, and such
			 move must be completed within six months. If the employee chooses not to move
			 his or her residence but commutes to the new job location from his or her
			 former residence, no payment of moving expenses and no per diem payment shall
			 be made. If the employee appeals the transfer, payment of moving expenses shall
			 be delayed until a decision is rendered by the state personnel board of review.
			 The appointing authority shall have the option of selecting or rejecting from
			 among three or more moving estimates to relocate the employee, and may ask the
			 employee to obtain additional estimates.
(L) During the period of a temporary transfer
			 or during the first thirty days of a permanent transfer pending the relocation
			 of the employee's residence, the appointing authority shall pay the employee's
			 travel expenses in accordance with the office of budget and management travel
			 expense regulations in effect at the time of transfer.
(M) An employee who has been notified in
			 writing that he or she is to be transferred may, within ten days of receipt of
			 such notice, file an appeal with the personnel board of review. In any event,
			 while the appeal of an employee is pending before the personnel board of
			 review, the employee shall have the obligation to comply with the transfer. In
			 any case where the employee has relocated his or her residence pursuant to a
			 permanent transfer and the rule of the board is that such transfer is not
			 justified, the employee shall be fully reimbursed for the cost of relocating,
			 as well as the cost of returning his or her residence to the original
			 location.
