AN ACT TO AMEND SECTION 8-11-120, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA,
1976, RELATING TO THE NOTIFICATION OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA EMPLOYMENT
SECURITY COMMISSION AND THE RECRUITMENT SECTION, DIVISION OF HUMAN
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT OF THE BUDGET AND CONTROL BOARD, OF JOB VACANCIES
IN STATE GOVERNMENT OFFICES, AGENCIES, DEPARTMENTS, DIVISIONS, AND
OTHER BRANCHES SO AS TO FURTHER PROVIDE FOR THE INFORMATION WHICH MUST
BE CONTAINED IN THESE NOTIFICATIONS, THE MANNER IN WHICH THEY MUST BE
SUBMITTED, POSTED, AND REPORTED AND TO PROVIDE EXCEPTIONS.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
Notification of job vacancies
SECTION 1. Section 8-11-120 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:
"Section 8-11-120. (A) All state offices, agencies,
departments, and other divisions and branches of the state government
shall notify, at least five working days prior to the close of the
application period, the Columbia Metro Job Service Office of the South
Carolina Employment Security Commission and the Recruitment Section,
Division of Human Resource Management of the Budget and Control Board
of a vacancy in any employment position for which recruitment will be
undertaken, except those employment positions exempt from the
classification and compensation plan under the provisions of Section
8-11-270. Notification of such vacant position must include the
following:
(a) the title of the position and a summary description of the
job responsibilities for the vacant position if needed for
clarification;
(b) the entry salary and/or salary range for the vacant
position;
(c) the name of the agency where the vacant position exists;
(d) a description of the application process for the vacant
position;
(e) residency requirements, if any, for the vacant position;
(f) the classification code, the slot, and the position number,
if any, of the vacant position;
(g) the minimum requirements for the vacant position, as well as
preferred qualifications, if any;
(h) the opening and closing dates for applying for the vacant
position;
(i) a statement certifying that the employer is an equal
employment opportunity/affirmative action employer;
(j) the Merit System status of the vacancy; and
(k) the normal work schedule and whether the position is
full-time or part-time.
The notification must be posted conspicuously within the agency
where the vacancy exists and must include the information described in
items (a) through (k).
If the vacancy is a promotional opportunity that requires work
experience within the agency to qualify for the promotion, notice of
the vacancy must be posted in a conspicuous place within the agency
for five working days, and the notice of vacancy does not have to be
sent to the Employment Security Commission or to the Recruitment
Section, Division of Human Resource Management of the Budget and
Control Board.
If an emergency situation exists requiring the vacancy to be
filled immediately, certification of the emergency must be made to and
approved by the agency director or the director's designee waiving the
posting requirement at the agency and state level.
(B) If a position classification continually is vacant an agency
has an open recruitment policy for a position classification, one
announcement at the beginning of each fiscal year is sufficient
notification to the Recruitment Section, Division of Human Resource
Management of the Budget and Control Board and the Columbia Metro Job
Service Office of the South Carolina Employment Security Commission.
(C) The Recruitment Section, Division of Human Resource
Management of the Budget and Control Board must report all filled
positions to the South Carolina Employment Security Commission."
Time effective
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
Approved the 29th day of May, 1990.
