being working in a big firm, recently my Department Head had informed me that he had nominated my name to Management for transferring me out to another Department. It was a big shock for me as my performance is recognised. When i approached him, the justification that he gave me is because i do not have tardiness problems, so he needs to send someone with clear record to another Department so that people will have better perception toward my current Department! I personally felt that this is not a good justification. Usually bosses will try their best to retain their good staff . I am not keen to transfer out! I cant accept the justification as it is not acceptable! Please tell me your opinion, what should i do?

Companies do this. I worked at a television station, as an engineer. I basically recorded feeds of programs to show later on, as well as ran the videos for the news. They moved me to be half on the midnight shift, and the other half remaining on afternoons. I asked why, and was given the response that the overnight guy kept falling asleep and missing feeds, so he was being put on dayshift.
It seems like they punish the good, and reward the bad. I hated it, and informed my boss that I could not do midnights. He shrugged at me, so I found a new job quickly, and handed in a two weeks notice. One of my best memories to this day!

His logic sounds strange, yes. I have never heard that one. You could talk to someone at Human Resources to get some feedback. Go forth gently as you don't want to ruffle feathers. It is also possible that you were asked for because you are a good employee. The best thing might be to just accept. Are you getting a raise ?

calm down, just think in another way. could be you'll be happier in the new department or better prospect. of course, you have choices to say no, but i don't think that's a good idea to say no to boss.

WHATS THE PROBLEM?
DO YOU CONSIDER IT A DEMOTION?
ISN'T IT MORE MONEY?
MORE RECOGNITION?
ACCEPT IT AT FACE VALUE AND TAKE IT IN STRIDE.
WHAT ARE THE NEGATIVES?
SOUNDS ALL POSITIVE..

I think it is illegal for them to "make" you go, you can refuse, but they can also fire you, but they probably wouldn't with your record.
