May a permanent WMS employee accept a project appointment within WMS and does the employee have any return rights to the employee's permanent WMS position?
A permanent WMS employee may accept an appointment to a project WMS position. Any right to return to the employee's permanent WMS position is negotiable between the employer and employee and must be agreed to prior to the employee accepting the project position. If no return right is agreed to, the permanent employee has the rights provided by WAC 357-58-465 upon layoff from the project.
