Hi
If someone transfers from another unit am I right in thinking that they need to be at the new unit for one year before applying for a vacant duty regardless of seniority? Thanks for any help

Transferring and vacant duty
As I understand it and have posted before, a transferee cannot pick a duty and then transfer into it, but once they have transferred in then they can apply for any duty advertised (from day one).
The 12-month rule is when you are successful at picking a vacant, advertised duty, you can't then apply if another one comes up for 12 months.
Way Forward agreement:
14.4 Where a full-time post is advertised internally, it will be available to all full-time employees and part-time employees, who have opted for full-time employment, in that resourcing unit. The posts will be filled on the basis of ‘most senior individual’. Where a part-time post is advertised internally, it will be available to all employees as above and filled in the same way.
14.5 The resulting vacancy will be temporarily filled by a reserve, a surplus employee, a transferee from within the wider resourcing area or another resourcing area or by direct recruitment in line with the process above.
14.6 When the number of consequential vacancies in the resourcing unit reaches 5%, or after a period of six months following the last such exercise (if earlier), the posts will be advertised in the resourcing unit, en bloc and filled on the basis of seniority. If this results in any further vacancies, these will be filled, using the same process as above.
