8-30-308. Maintenance of lists Notice of removal from lists.
(a) The commissioner shall establish and maintain such promotion lists and employment lists for the various classes of positions in the career service as the commissioner deems necessary or desirable to meet the needs of the service. On each promotion list and employment list, the eligibles shall be ranked in the order of their ratings earned in the test given for the purpose of establishing such list. If training and experience form a part of the total examination, the rating of an employee shall be recalculated for use on the current promotion registers, pursuant to the rating procedure established by the commissioner, upon notice to the department on the prescribed form approved by the commissioner, which shall serve as a supplement to the original employee application on file with the department. All information submitted on such supplemental application forms shall be subject to verification by the commissioner.
(b) At the time any promotion list or employment list is established, the commissioner shall determine the period during which such list shall remain in force, which shall be not less than six (6) months. The commissioner may consolidate or cancel promotion lists and employment lists, as the needs of the service may require and as authorized by the rules. A promotion list or employment list which has been in force for six (6) months or more shall be deemed cancelled upon the establishment of a new promotion list or employment list, as the case may be, for the same class of positions.
(c) Any person whose name is removed from a promotion or employment list for any reason shall be mailed written notice of such action within ten (10) days of the date of removal. Notice shall include the reason for the removal of such person's name from the promotion or employment list.
