Andy,
Provided the fields are similar you can do something like,
INSERT INTO schema.table1 (emp_no, ref_no)
SELECT emp_no, ref_no
FROM table2 WHERE (some condition);
If the condition is actually on the first table (receiving table) then try this,
INSERT INTO (SELECT emp_no, ref_no FROM table1
WHERE condition) SELECT emp_no, ref_no FROM table2 WHERE condition;
These statement are from memory which may not be correct but give them a try.
