1. Purpose
The purpose of this practice directive is to provide guidance and outline the parameters related to relocation (household moves) and temporary or indefinite work assignments.

Effective July 1, 2015, UW System institutions maintained the authority to temporarily interchange employees as outlined in this policy.
