What is the maximum duration for a temporary personnel transfer as per the Mayor's authority?

The maximum duration for a temporary personnel transfer as per the Mayor's authority is 120 days. This period is designed to provide enough time for a temporary reassignment of personnel to meet changing operational needs without incurring the complications of permanent changes in staffing. Transfers are typically used to address situations like project demands, unexpected absences, or shifts in departmental priorities. By establishing a 120-day limit, the policy ensures that temporary arrangements can effectively fulfill short-term requirements while maintaining overall staff stability and preventing prolonged disruptions to established roles and responsibilities.
