Demoted employees will be paid at a rate within the approved range for the lower classification. 4. Pay rates will be set by the Sheriff in consultation with applicable chain of command, taking into consideration reasons for the demotion. 5. Demotions may be subject to satisfactory completion of at least a six- month probationary period. B. Transfer: 1.

Transfers may be subject to the satisfactory completion of at least a six- month probationary period if the transfer is to a job classification not in the employee's present job classification series. 3.14 10/01/2008  SHERIFF’S POLICY MANUAL THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 3.14 10/01/2008
