| 13 | assistant director of personnel, and laborers, the appointing
| ||||||
| 14 | officer shall make requisition upon the Director, and the | ||||||
| 15 | Director shall
certify to him from the register of eligibles | ||||||
| 16 | for the position the names
and addresses (a) of the five | ||||||
| 17 | candidates standing highest upon the register
of eligibles for | ||||||
| 18 | the position, or (b) of the candidates within the highest
| ||||||
| 19 | ranking group upon the register of eligibles if the register is | ||||||
| 20 | by categories
such as excellent, well qualified, and qualified, | ||||||
| 21 | provided, however, that
any certification shall consist of at | ||||||
| 22 | least 5 names, if available. The
Director shall certify names | ||||||
| 23 | from succeeding categories in the order of
excellence of the | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | categories until at least 5 names are provided to the
| ||||||
| 2 | appointing officer. The appointing officer
shall notify the | ||||||
| 3 | Director of each position to be filled separately and
shall | ||||||
| 4 | fill the position by appointment of one of the persons | ||||||
| 5 | certified

| 6 | probation for a period to
be fixed by the rules, not exceeding | ||||||
| 7 | one year. At any time during the
period of probation, the | ||||||
| 8 | appointing officer with the approval of the
Director may | ||||||
| 9 | discharge a person so certified and shall forthwith notify
the | ||||||
| 10 | civil service board in writing of this discharge. If a person | ||||||
| 11 | is
not discharged, his appointment shall be deemed complete.
| ||||||
| 12 | When there is no eligible list, the appointing officer may, | ||||||
| 13 | with the
authority of the Director, make a temporary | ||||||
| 14 | appointment to remain in
force only until a permanent | ||||||
| 15 | appointment from an eligible register or
list can be made in | ||||||
| 16 | the manner specified in the previous provisions of
this | ||||||
| 17 | Section, and examinations to supply an eligible list therefor | ||||||
| 18 | shall
be held and an eligible list established therefrom within | ||||||
| 19 | one year from
the making of such appointment. The acceptance or | ||||||
| 20 | refusal by an eligible person of a temporary appointment does | ||||||
| 21 | not affect his standing on the register for permanent | ||||||
| 22 | appointment.
| ||||||
| 23 | In employment of an essentially
temporary and transitory | ||||||
| 24 | nature, the appointing officer may, with the
authority of the | ||||||
| 25 | Director of Personnel make temporary appointments to
fill a | ||||||
| 26 | vacancy. No temporary appointment of an essentially temporary | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||

| 2 | 119 consecutive or non-consecutive working
120 days per | ||||||

| ||||||
| 4 | include in his annual report, and if required by the | ||||||

| 6 | temporary authorities granted
during the year or period | ||||||
| 7 | specified by the commissioners, together with
a statement of | ||||||
| 8 | the facts in each case because of which the authority was
| ||||||
| 9 | granted.
| ||||||
| 10 | The acceptance or refusal by an eligible person of a | ||||||
| 11 | temporary
appointment does not affect his standing on the | ||||||
| 12 | register for permanent
appointment.
| ||||||
| 13 | All laborers shall be appointed by the General | ||||||
| 14 | Superintendent and shall
be on probation for a period to be | ||||||
| 15 | fixed by the rules, not exceeding one year.

| 20 | purchasing agent, and assistant director of personnel shall be
| ||||||
| 21 | appointed by the General Superintendent upon the | ||||||
| 22 | recommendation of
the respective department head and shall be | ||||||
| 23 | on probation for a period
to be fixed by the rules, not | ||||||
| 24 | exceeding two years. At any time during
the period of | ||||||
| 25 | probation, the General Superintendent on the
recommendation of | ||||||
| 26 | the department head concerned, may discharge a person
so | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | appointed and he shall forthwith notify the Civil Service Board | ||||||
