| 3 | | Sec. 4.10. Promotions. The Director shall note of record | 4 | | the duties
(whether imposed by
law, official regulation or | 5 | | practice) of each classification in the
classified service, and | 6 | | shall thereupon by rule fix lines for promotion
from lower | 7 | | classifications to
higher classifications in all
cases where, | 8 | | in his or her judgment, the experience gained in the lower
| 9 | | classification may tend to qualify an employee to perform the | 10 | | duties of a
higher classification. In case of vacancy in
higher | 11 | | classifications, which cannot be filled by reinstatement, the
| 12 | | Director shall hold promotional examinations to fill such
| 13 | | vacancy. Incumbents
of classifications in lines of promotion | 14 | | established by the Director shall be solely
eligible for such | 15 | | examination, unless in the judgment of the Director, it
is for | 16 | | the best interests of the service that original examination for | 17 | | such
vacancy be held. In promotional examinations, efficiency | 18 | | and
seniority in
service shall form a part of such examination, | 19 | | but combined shall not carry
a weight of more than 25% of the | 20 | | total examination points. Although efficiency and seniority in | 21 | | service shall not carry a weight of more than 25% of the total | 22 | | examination points, the Director may require candidates to | 23 | | separately pass the efficiency and seniority parts of the | 24 | | examination in order for the candidates to be eligible to take | 25 | | the subsequent parts of the examination. If the Director |
| | | HB1760 Enrolled | - 3 - | LRB097 05377 RLJ 45434 b |
|
| 1 | | requires candidates to separately pass the efficiency and | 2 | | seniority parts of the examination, then any candidate who does | 3 | | not pass the efficiency and seniority parts of the examination | 4 | | shall fail the entire examination. All examinations for
| 5 | | promotion shall be
competitive. The method of examination, the | 6 | | rules governing the same, and
the method of certifying shall be | 7 | | the same as provided for in the original
examination.
