Promotion <br /> <br /> Promotional or open-promotional examinations may be conducted <br /> whenever in the opinion of the Personnel Officer the needs of the <br /> service require. Only employees who meet the requirements set <br /> forth in the examination announcements may compete in promotional <br /> examinations. <br /> <br /> Insofar as consistent with the best interests of the service all <br /> vacancies in the competitive service shall be filled by promotion <br /> from within the competitive service after a promotional <br /> examination has been given and a promotional list established. <br /> <br /> When the needs of the service so require, an employee meeting the <br /> minimum qualifications may be temporarily promoted to an <br /> authorized position on an "acting" basis. While serving in the <br /> position the employee temporarily promoted shall be paid the <br /> minimum rate of pay for the classification except that said rate <br /> of pay shall be no less than 5% above the employee's normal rate <br /> of pay. <br /> <br /> Nothing in this section, however, shall restrict a Department <br /> Head from requiring an employee possessing the minimum <br /> qualifications to serve in a higher classification without an <br /> adjustment in compensation for a period not to exceed five (5) <br /> consecutive working days. <br /> <br /> - 34 - <br /> <br /> <br />
