A feature of this act which may do
more to improve the state service
than almost any other provision is
the probationary clause. All origi-
nal appointments TO the competitive
| and non-competitive classes and also
| the labor class of the classified serv.
ice will be for probationary period
Of one. two or three months in the dis
erection of the appointing officer, but
| dismissal for cause may be made dur
| ing such period If at the close of this
probationary term the conduct or
capacity Of the probationer has not
been satisfactory to the appointing Off
icer the latter is required to notify
the probationer that he is not to re
ceive absolute appointment, otherwise
| his retention will be equivalent to an
Iabs0lute appointment. The present
state employees, when taking a non
/ competitive examination are exempted
from the probationary clause. Another
! rooL feature is the elimua ion Of in
/ fuence in securing state employment.
! Only recommendations that relate to
an applicants character or in the
case Of a former employer as to the
ability of the applicant viii be admit
ted in the consideration of a persons
qualifications. Thus an applicant
will secure his place on merit alone
and outside influence will have con
tributed nothing.
