What determines why an employee (position) is non-state service?
A. Section 25-9-107 (c ), Mississippi Code of 1972, Annotated, lists which positions within Mississippi State Government shall be designated as non-state service. This list includes, but is not limited to, part-time and time-limited positions, as well as, top level positions if the incumbents determine and publicly advocate substantive program policy and report directly to the agency head, or the incumbents are required to maintain a direct confidential working relationship with a key excluded official. Also included are employees who have not completed the 12-month probationary period in a state service position. NOTE: Part-time positions are those where the employee works less than 40 hours a week, 12 months a year. Time-limited positions are those that are typically funded through a federal grant and whose length of employment has been determined to be time-limited in nature. They are subject to be deleted once the funding is discontinued.
