(1) All certified and equivalent employees shall serve a one (1) year probationary period for renewal of limited status. An employee may be separated from the position or reduced in class during this initial probationary period and shall not have a right to appeal except as provided in KRS § 156.820. If the employee is separated from the position, notice in writing shall be received at least ten (10) working days prior to separation. A copy of the notification shall be forwarded to the commissioner. Unless the commissioner notifies the employee of separation prior to the end of the initial probationary period, the employee shall be eligible for renewable limited status. Limited status employees are subject to reemployment on an annual basis. Limited status employees may be dismissed without cause before the annual anniversary date.
(2) After completion of the initial probationary period, the individual shall be considered on limited status until successful completion of the fourth year, at which time the employee may be placed on continuing status.
(3) An employee who has been assigned continuing status may not be demoted, disciplined, or dismissed without cause except as provided by provisions in KRS
156.800 to 156.860.
(4) An employee with continuing status who has been promoted shall serve a probationary period of one (1) year in the new position. During the period of promotional probation, the employee shall retain the rights and privileges granted by the provisions of KRS § 156.800 to KRS § 156.860 to continuing status employees.
(5) During the promotional probationary period, the employee with continuing status may be reverted at the discretion of the appointing authority to a position in the class formerly held.
(6) A continuing status employee who has been laid-off may return to a position with continuing status if an appropriate position is available.
