Hiring Departments
By hiring employees who would otherwise lose their jobs, you help the State avoid layoffs and demotions. You'll work with DPA and layoff departments.
All hiring supervisors and managers need to understand the surplus/SROA process.
Responsibilities
When hiring,
- publish job bulletins,
- request the certified list,
- send contact letters,
- remove non-responsive employees from surplus/SROA lists,
- verify employees are surplus/SROA,
- clear lists,
- get exemptions if necessary, and
- hire eligible employees.
Information
You also need to know other information about
- hiring department-specific classes,
- layoff department holds,
- probationary periods,
- LEAP employees, and
- when can you bypass the surplus/SROA process?
