Answer:
When transferring departments within the same organization, your rights are generally determined by your employer, especially if there are no specific policies, contracts, or union agreements in place. Employers have significant discretion in setting employment policies regarding transfers and notice periods, as long as they comply with applicable laws and do not engage in illegal discrimination.
