Internal Mobility Program

If you are a merit employee with status and want to have your name on an Internal Mobility register, you must:

1. Submit or have an updated application on file with the Personnel Cabinet’s Division of Staffing Services.
2. Meet the minimum requirements for the position for which you are applying.
3. Be approved and placed on a register by an Employment Counselor in the Division of Staffing Services.

Employees on Internal Mobility registers are not ranked. When an Internal Mobility register is requested, the names of all Internal Mobility applicants on that register plus the names of competitive applicants within the top 5 scores are sent to agencies that advertise a vacancy and request a register. Laid-off employees are referred to as re-employments and are placed on registers for up to five years. If this is the case, only re-employments and internal mobility (current state employees) will be sent to the agencies. Summer, Interim, non-merit, and probationary employees are not eligible for Internal Mobility registers. Part-time merit employees can only be on part-time Internal Mobility registers.

If you have any questions, contact the Personnel Cabinet at (502) 564-8030.
