Hi Nimmy,
It is a general clause to have a transfer option. Reasonable notice can be one month or a stipulated/agreed timeline. Transfer orders can be issued at the time of such deputation to another place. The format for the deputation/transfer will be provided by your company. There would be no employer who would force you to work if you have medical issues. But you have not mentioned your company's nature. Is it a factory, a software company, or another service sector?
