Sec. 34. (a) Every person appointed to a classification in the state classified service shall complete a working test period while occupying a position in the classification. The working test period begins immediately upon the person's appointment and continues until a time established by the director. At least once during the working test period, the appointing authority shall prepare for the director, in the manner specified by the director, a full performance appraisal of the employee's work.
(b) Subject to subsection (c), the appointing authority may remove an employee for any reason at any time during the employee's working test period. The appointing authority shall immediately report the removal to the director and to the employee who is removed.
(c) If the director finds during an employee's working test period that the employee was appointed as a result of error or fraud, the director may remove the employee after providing the employee with notice and an opportunity to be heard.
(d) Before the expiration of an employee's working test period, the appointing authority shall notify the director as to:
(1) whether the services of the employee have been satisfactory; and
(2) whether the appointing authority will continue the employee's employment after the working test period ends.
The appointing authority shall provide the employee with a copy of the notice given to the director.
(e) Sections 23 and 42 of this chapter do not apply to an employee who is removed during a working test period for the initial classification in the state classified service to which the employee is appointed.
(f) The removal of an employee in the classified service from a working test period for a promotion from one (1) classification to another classification is not appealable, unless the removal results in the employee's dismissal or layoff.
