12 chief engineer, assistant chief engineers, head assistant
13 attorneys, assistant director of research and development,
14 assistant director of information technology, comptroller,
15 assistant treasurer, assistant purchasing agent and laborers
16 shall be subjected to examination, which shall be public and
17 competitive with limitations specified in the rules of the
18 Director as to residence, age, sex, health, habits, moral
19 character and qualifications to perform the duties of the
20 office or place to be filled, which qualifications shall be
21 prescribed in advance of such examination. Such examinations
22 shall be practical in their character, and shall relate to
23 those matters which will fairly test the relative capacity of
24 the persons examined to discharge the duties of the position
25 to which they seek to be appointed, and may include tests of
26 physical qualifications and health and when appropriate, of
27 manual skill. No question in any examination shall relate to
28 political or religious opinions or affiliations. The
29 Director shall control all examinations, and may, whenever an
30 examination is to take place, designate a suitable number of
31 persons to be special examiners and it shall be the duty of
SB1307 Enrolled -2- LRB9008757PTsb
1 such special examiners to conduct such examinations as the
2 Director may direct, and to make return and report thereof to
3 him; and he may at any time substitute any other person in
4 the place of any one so selected; and he may himself, at any
5 time, act as such special examiner, and without appointing
6 other special examiners. The Director shall, by rule,
7 provide for and shall hold sufficient number of examinations
8 to provide a sufficient number of eligibles on the register
9 for each grade of position in the classified civil service,
10 and if any place in the classified civil service shall become
11 vacant, to which there is no person eligible for appointment,
12 he shall hold an examination for such position and repeat the
13 same, if necessary, until a vacancy is filled in accordance
14 with the provisions of this Act.
15 Eligible registers shall remain in force for 3 years,
16 except the eligible register for laborers which shall remain
17 in force for 4 years and except the eligible registers for
18 student programs and entry level engineering positions which,
19 in the Director's discretion, may remain in force for one
20 year.
21 Examinations for an eligible list for each position in
22 the classified service above mentioned shall be held at least
23 once in 3 years and at least annually for student programs
24 and entry level engineering positions if the Director has
25 limited the duration of the registers for those positions to
26 one year, unless the Director determines that such
27 examinations are not necessary because no vacancy exists.
28 To help defray expenses of examinations, the sanitary
29 district may, but need not, charge a fee to each applicant
30 who desires to take a civil service examination provided for
31 by this Act. The amount of such fees shall be set by the
32 corporate authority of the sanitary district. Such fees
33 shall be deposited in the corporate fund of the district.
