Nevada Administrative Code
Chapter 284 - State Personnel System
SEPARATIONS FROM SERVICE
Section 284.630 - Layoffs: Reemployment

1. Names of permanent employees who have received a layoff notice will be placed on the statewide reemployment list for the class and option of the position involved in the layoff, in order of seniority.

2. Names of permanent employees who have received a layoff notice will also be placed on the statewide reemployment list for other classes for which they qualify at or below the grade of the class held at the time of layoff, in order of seniority but behind those identified in subsection 1.

3. The employee shall provide an employment application and a list of classes and options he or she is seeking for reemployment to the Division of Human Resource Management within 30 days after his or her layoff date. The agency shall provide the seniority calculations to the Division of Human Resource Management.

4. Names of permanent employees who have received a layoff notice will be integrated with names of employees who are eligible for reemployment pursuant to NAC 284.6014.

5. Part-time employees are not entitled to be reemployed in full-time positions, and full-time employees are not entitled to be reemployed in part-time positions.

6. Seniority must be projected and counted up to the layoff date, or transfer date if the provisions of subsection 4 of NAC 284.394 apply. Seniority determines ranking on all reemployment lists and will not be recalculated unless the employee is affected by a subsequent layoff.

7. Each person on the list retains reemployment eligibility for 1 year after the layoff date. Except as otherwise provided in this section, reemployment rights are exhausted when a person accepts or declines an offer of employment in the class or a comparable class with the same grade in the department and geographical location of the layoff. Any exception to this provision must be approved by the Division of Human Resource Management. When a person accepts a position at a grade lower than that held at the time of layoff, his or her name will be removed from all reemployment lists that are equal to or below the grade accepted.

8. A permanent employee who has been laid off and is being reemployed in the department, class and option from which he or she was laid off must have his or her permanent status restored. A permanent employee who is reemployed in a different class or in a different department must serve a new probationary period. If the employee does not complete the probationary period, his or her name must be restored to the appropriate reemployment list for any remaining part of the year following the layoff date. When the right to reemployment expires, the person affected retains the right to reinstatement or reappointment pursuant to NAC 284.386 or 284.404.
