The appointing power, to prevent the stoppage of public business when an actual emergency arises, or because the work will be of limited duration, not to exceed 60 working days, may make emergency appointments without utilizing persons on employment lists and, if necessary, without regard to existing classes. The method of selection and the qualification standards for an emergency employee shall be determined by the appointing power. The frequency of appointment, length of employment, and the circumstances appropriate for the appointment of an individual under emergency appointments shall be restricted by the State Personnel Board by rule so as to prevent the use of emergency appointments to circumvent employment lists.
Service under emergency appointment shall be credited for purposes of layoff only if and as provided by department rule.
