§ 9.05. Requirement of qualification prior to employment.

A.

No applicant in an open examination shall be employed in a permanent, temporary or recurrent position prior to a determination by the director of personnel, following a medical examination, that the applicant is qualified for the duties to be performed; provided, however, that the director of personnel may authorize in specific cases:

1.

Employment prior to medical examination for a period the director deems reasonable;

2.

Employment of persons who are found to have certain disqualifying, but correctable, medical conditions. Such employment may be for a period the director deems reasonable, but not to exceed five months.

B.

An appointment made before the director of personnel determines that the applicant is qualified must be considered as contingent upon such determination.

C.

If the director of personnel finds that an applicant is a poor long-term risk for permanent employment but otherwise meets the standards the director of personnel may approve an appointment on a temporary basis, if a temporary appointment is otherwise authorized by Rule 13.
