Appointment of a Limited-Term Employee to a Permanent Position
If there was no surplus/SROA list for the class when the LT employee was appointed, you can appoint the employee to the permanent position.
Otherwise, this exemption only applies if
- the limited-term employee was in the surplus/SROA process when appointed and
- you announced that the job would be permanent if specific events occurred. For example, the job depends on federal funding. When the funding comes through, the job becomes permanent.
Also, a department can't appoint an LT employee to a permanent position in a class and location that's facing layoff.
