Title

Regarding non-merit system state employees; to amend Section 36-26-10, Code of Alabama 1975, to further provide for the number of exempt service employees allowable in each department or agency.

Description

Existing law regulates how many positions each state department or agency can fill with employees who are exempt from the state's merit, or civil service, system. In addition to departmental or agency heads and other positions that may be specifically provided for by law, each department or agency is allowed two additional positions that may be filled with exempt service employees.

This bill would raise this statutory limit from two to three positions. In addition, for some larger departments specified in the bill, an additional exempt position may be allowed, raising the limit to four.
