§ 2550. Reinstatement and
reemployment
A. Each employee who, during or at the expiration of his working
test period of probation following his promotion after being
certified from an appropriate employment list, is rejected and
refused permanent status in the position and class to which he
was promoted, shall be automatically reinstated to the
position from which he was promoted without his name being
placed upon any list.
B. All employees whose names appear upon the reinstatement list
for a respective class shall be reinstated in a position
thereof, in the reverse order from which their names are
placed upon the list, before any other appointment is made
therein.
C. All employees whose names appear upon the re-employment list
for a class from which they were laid off according to the
provisions of R.S. 33:2559, shall be re-employed in a position
thereof, or offered such appointment, in the reverse order
from which their names were placed upon the list for the class
and before any other employment or appointment is made in it.
D. Any regular employee who resigns from a position in the
classified service may, with the prior approval of the board,
be reemployed in a position of the class or in a position of
any lower class for which he is qualified, provided the
reemployment is made within four years of the date of
resignation, and provided no person whose name appears upon
either the reinstatement, promotional employment, or
reemployment list for a class to which any such person is
reemployed is willing to accept an appointment therein. Any
person who is reemployed shall be physically fit to perform
the duties of the position to which he is appointed. He shall
furnish a favorable medical certificate to the appointing
authority and the board after a recent examination by a
practicing physician.
