(c) Reemployment Eligibility Rate — This allows an appointing authority to compensate an individual at any amount in the pay range that does not exceed the highest salary that the employee previously earned while serving with permanent status in a classified position. In other words, an employee who resigns with permanent status retains eligibility to the highest pay the employee held with permanent status. When the employee returns to state service and is hired in a classified job, the pay may be set anywhere in the range assigned to the job in which the employee is employed as long as the rate does not exceed the highest rate earned while serving with permanent status. However, the rate cannot exceed range maximum and there must have been a break in service of at least 30 days. An appointing authority may request an exception to 6.5(c) from the SCS Director by submittal of the Exception to 6.5(c) Form.
(d) Classified When Actually Employed (WAE) Appointment — When an appointing authority hires a classified WAE, the pay may be set at any rate within the range for the grade assigned to the position. An appointing authority may amend the rate of pay for a classified WAE at any time after the initial appointment, as long as that rate falls within the assigned pay range.
(e) Return From Military — For the purpose of setting a rate of pay, an employee who leaves state service for military service should be treated upon return as though they had never left. If the employee’s position has undergone any pay adjustments, the pay must be adjusted accordingly. This rule specifies conditions in which the appointing authority is authorized to pay the minimum wage prescribed and required by federal rules, statutes, regulations, and/or judicial decisions when this rate exceeds the minimum rate provided for elsewhere in the SCS Rules. For example, if a certain U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) minimum hiring rate is above the State Civil Service minimum for a job, a Housing Authority must pay the higher minimum as Federal law supersedes SCS Rules. The pay shall not be set higher than the maximum of the pay range. (f) Agencies Administering Federal Funds — This rule specifies conditions in which the appointing authority is authorized to pay the minimum wage prescribed and required by federal rules, statutes, regulations, and/or judicial decisions when this rate exceeds the minimum rate provided for elsewhere in the SCS Rules. For example, if a certain U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) minimum hiring rate is above the State Civil Service minimum for a job, a Housing Authority must pay the higher minimum as Federal law supersedes SCS Rules.
