(a) State government shall meet its workforce needs through systematic recruitment programs, selection programs, and career support programs that are designed to identify, attract, and select from the most qualified applicants for State employment, and to encourage diverse representation at all occupational levels of the workforce. The recruitment and selection process shall be consistently applied, non-discriminatory and promote open and fair competition and the hiring of a diverse workforce.

(b) While most positions are filled through systematic recruitment, it is recognized that some positions in State government are exempt from various provisions of the State Human Resources Act because of the relationship between the position and the responsibility of elected or appointed officials expected to implement the public policy of the State. While these positions are exempt from various provisions of the State Human Resources Act, they are subject to the following requirements:

(1) If an individual applies for an exempt position, written notification that a position is exempt shall be given to the individual at the time the individual makes application for the exempt position. Written notification that the position is exempt may be contained in the vacancy announcement if the position is posted as exempt, or in a letter that either acknowledges acceptance of an application for an exempt position or contains an offer of employment for an exempt position or a notification that the position is exempt;

(2) In addition, written notification that a position is exempt shall be given to an employee placed in an exempt position not less than 10 working days prior to the employee's first day in the exempt position; and

(3) If an employee occupies a subject position that is subsequently designated as exempt, the agency shall provide written notification to the employee that the position has been designated exempt. The exemption shall apply to the employee 10 working days after receiving written notification.
