Does a department need to count a casual EX-04 or EX-05 against their authorized baseline of EX-04 and EX-05 positions?
No. Casual workers paid at the EX-04 or EX-05 level do not count against a departmental authorized baseline, because they are not appointed against formally classified positions. Casual employment is a staffing mechanism that does not require the creation or classification of a position regardless of the group and level.
