What Is An Employee Transfer Form?

An employee transfer form is an official document that is used when an employee wants to transfer to another position within the company. There are several types of transfer that an employee may apply for:

• When an employee wishes to be promoted to a higher position in order to obtain career growth by taking on more difficult responsibilities or in order to receive a bigger salary, or a combination of both reasons.
• When an employee wishes to be transferred to another department simply because he/she thinks that his/her interests, skills set, or career direction is more aligned with the tasks and duties of a staff in a department different from the one he/she is currently a part of.
• When an employee due to family, health, educational (e.g. masters and etc.), or other reasons would wish to relocate to another state or place and since the company that he/she is working for has another branch in that state or location, then the employee would apply for transfer in another branch of the company.

Who Prepares an Employee Transfer Form?

In normal business or organizational settings, several copies of employee transfer forms are already stocked in the human resource or manager’s office and ready to be filled out by employees who may ask to be transferred to another position or location within the company.

An employee transfer form is usually prepared by any of the following persons:

• a human resource staff,
• a human resource manager,
• a manager,
• the department head (directly supervising the employee who wishes to be transferred),
• the team leader (who manages the team that the employee who is applying for transfer is a part of), or
• an employer (in case, the business is a small one).

 

An employee transfer form is essential in any large business/organization. That is why, if you are currently managing one, make sure that you prepare ahead of time several copies of this form and store it in your office drawers or file racks so that you can pull it out easily when an employee comes knocking on your door asking for transfer.
