Employees are motivated to improve their performance as promotion at a
higher level may lead to a chain of promotions at lower levels in the organisation.

already working in the enterprise can be evaluated more accurately and economically
making the source more reliable too.

Transfer is a tool of training as people recruited from within the organisation do
not need induction training.

Transfer has the benefit of shifting workforce from the surplus departments to
those where there is shortage of staff.

Filling of jobs internally is cheaper as compared to getting candidates from
external sources.
