Australian National University Enterprise Agreement 2005-2008
Part Four — Training and Development
51. Multi-skilling and general staff transfer
51.1 The University may require a general staff member to carry out such duties as may be necessary, provided that:
51.1(a) the staff member has been trained in the use of necessary tools and equipment and the duties are appropriate to the ANU Officer grade in which he or she is being paid; and
51.1(b) where the duties require the staff member performing them to hold a licence, this sub-clause will not operate in respect of those duties unless the staff member concerned holds the appropriate current licences.
51.2 Where a general staff member is transferred from one work area to another for a period greater than 3 months and the transfer involves a change in duties or reporting arrangements the procedures set out below will apply.
51.2(a) Heads of the work areas involved will inform the staff member of the work area into which the staff member will be transferred and the reasons for the transfer, and discuss the transfer if the staff member wishes to do so. The heads will draw the staff member's attention to these procedures.
51.2(b) As soon as possible and prior to the transfer being implemented an approved duty statement for the position into which the staff member is being transferred should be provided to the staff member and arrangements made for him or her to discuss the duties with the supervisor of the position.
51.2(c) Where the staff member is satisfied with the arrangements the transfer will proceed.
51.2(d) Where the staff member is not satisfied with the arrangements, the delegate should advise the Director of Human Resources, who will arrange further discussions, at which the staff member may have a union representative if he or she chooses. Where the matter remains unresolved, the Director of Human Resources will be the final arbiter.
51.3 The procedures set out in sub-clause 51.2 do not in any way restrict the University's right to transfer staff members to suitable positions within the University at the same ANU Officer grade.
51.4 There will be no impediments to redeployment caused by a transfer of accrued entitlements liability to a receiving area.
