Sutter Health constantly strives to be your employer of choice by offering career mobility through our Inter-Affiliate Employment program (IAE). The IAE is designed to make it more attractive for valued employees who are contemplating a job change to first consider a career move within our network. Among its many advantages, our IAE Program takes these important issues into account:

• Your previously earned length-of-service credits
• Continuous benefits eligibility
• Portability of benefits
• Past performance

The overall plan offers standardized practices and process, as well as a system-wide strengthening of our inter-affiliate communication.

Here’s how it works:

• For the transition to take place, both the former and new employers must participate in Sutter Health’s IAE Program.
• You voluntarily leave the employment of one Sutter Health affiliate and accept employment with another Sutter Health entity.
• To be eligible, you must have successfully completed six months of employment at your Sutter affiliate.
• Employees covered under a collective bargaining agreement should consult their HR Department.
• Complete the online application for any posted position, indicating that you are a current Sutter Health affiliate employee, and Human Resources will provide the follow through.

Important:
The IAE program is not a "transfer" of employment, since each affiliate has separate and distinct terms and conditions of employment, and all policies of the new employer apply.
