88076
. (a) The commission shall classify all employees and
positions within the jurisdiction of the governing board or of the
commission, except those which are exempt from the classified
service, as specified in subdivision (b). The employees and positions
shall be known as the classified service. "To classify" shall
include, but not be limited to, allocating positions to appropriate
classes, arranging classes into occupational hierarchies, determining
reasonable relationships within occupational hierarchies, and
preparing written class specifications.
(b) The following positions and employees are exempt from the
classified service:
(1) Academic positions.
(2) Part-time playground positions.
(3) Full-time students employed part time.
(4) Part-time students employed part time in any college
work-study program or in a work experience education program
conducted by a community college which is financed by state or
federal funds.
(5) Apprentice positions.
(6) Positions established for the employment of professional
experts on a temporary basis for a specific project by the governing
board or by the commission when so designated by the commission.
Employment of either full-time or part-time students in any
college work-study program, or in a work experience education program
shall not result in the displacement of classified personnel or
impair existing contracts for services.
However, nothing in this section shall prevent an employee, who
has attained regular status in a full-time position, from taking a
voluntary reduction in time and retaining his or her regular status
under the provisions of this law.
No person whose contribution consists solely in the rendition of
individual personal services and whose employment does not come
within the scope of the exceptions listed above shall be employed
outside the classified service.
A part-time position is one for which the assigned time, when
computed on an hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly basis, is less than
87 1/2 percent of the normally assigned time of the majority of
employees in the classified service.
