Bill > H2315

This bill mandates that the Division of Personnel Administration, a state agency responsible for managing public employment, must administer a Civil Service Exam for individuals currently employed as Benefits Eligibility and Referral Social Workers, regardless of their specific grade level (A, B, C, or D), within one year of the law becoming effective. This requirement applies even if other existing laws might suggest a different process for these positions, emphasizing the importance of a standardized civil service examination for these roles within the Department of Transitional Assistance and the Department of Housing and Community Development, which are involved in providing essential social services.
