Actually you should probably talk to a co-manager or store manager. They're the ones that can actually get you from meat to produce. Asking the produce manager if they need any extra help in the first place would be a good start though.
^ This. The department head can't pull you into a department without getting a salaried manager's approval, but expressing an interest to the department head is a good place to start.

They most certainly can move employees around without getting permission ahead of time. Your mgmt may pretend otherwise to falsely inflate their authority and egos, but they're lying.

Wrong. The head of produce can tell Joe Schmoe that he would love to have him aboard and he would be great there and blah blah blah, but the manager of meat could tell, say, the store manager that he needs Joe more than produce does, and if agreed, Joe's dreams of going to produce are shot down in an instant. Been there, done that.

Actually people can file grievances over this. If someone in produce does 'steal' a meat clerk for the day, the produce clerks can file grievances because they could have had those hours.

And that's a different situation. You're talking about needing to have mgmt get involved when the 2 dept heads disagree. We've been talking about an employee wanting to transfer from one dept to another when both dept heads assumedly agree to the transfer.
