Bill > HB2688

This bill requires state agencies, referred to as "budget units" (which are defined as state departments, commissions, boards, institutions, or other agencies that handle state money, but exclude universities and community colleges), to report on vacant positions that have been empty for at least 150 days as part of their annual salary and position reports. Furthermore, it mandates that these budget units must eliminate any positions that remain vacant for over 150 days each fiscal year, and their allocated "full-time equivalent positions" (which represent the total hours worked by employees, calculated as if they were all full-time) will be adjusted accordingly, with specific exceptions for the Department of Corrections and the Department of Public Safety.
