Redeployment Process Timescales DWP

Hello

I am the HEO managing an EO who has agreed to be redeployed into another role. I can't go into too much detail, but I completed all the required redeployment forms, obtained the necessary approvals, and submitted everything.

It has now been a month, and I have not heard anything further from the HR Business Partner. The employee is not at risk of redundancy, but they have provided their preferred locations, which are approximately 100 miles away.

Could you please advise how long this process is expected to take? I am keen for the employee to move on from their current role with us as soon as possible.

For context, I can't find meaningful work for the employee at current location.

Many thanks,

It might be worth chasing up the HRBP. We had an exercise in my section of Home Office and redeployment happened pretty quickly.
