(1) Agencies shall
				fill established positions with one of the following types of appointments:
				original, promotion, demotion, reassignment, lateral action, or
				reinstatement.
(2) A person
				appointed to a position must meet licensure, certification or registration
				requirements established for the position, and required knowledge, skills,
				abilities, and other requirements the agency establishes for the position,
				unless the appointment is with trainee status in accordance with subsection
				 60L-33.003(3),
				F.A.C.
(3) Employees on military
				leave shall be treated as if they had been continuously employed for purposes
				of status, pay, and other benefits pursuant to the terms of the type of
				authorized leave they have been granted and in accordance with Title 38, United
				States Code, Chapter 43, the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment
				Rights Act (USERRA).
(4) The duties
				of a vacant position, or of a filled position when the incumbent is on an
				extended leave of absence, may be temporarily assigned to a current employee.
				During the temporary assignment of duties, the employee shall remain in and
				retain the status and benefits of their current position. In accordance with
				Chapter 60L-32, F.A.C., an agency may grant a selected exempt service or senior
				management service employee a temporary salary increase, or a career service
				employee the appropriate pay additive, while performing the duties of the other
				position. Such temporary increases and additives shall be removed when the
				employee ceases to perform the temporarily assigned duties. If a career service
				employee who is temporarily assigned the duties of another position is
				subsequently appointed to fill the position, time spent performing the
				temporary duties shall count toward the completion of the probationary period
				only if the employee performed all the duties of the position.
(5) Every career service employee not
				permanent in their current position shall serve at the pleasure of the agency
				head and shall be subject to any personnel action, including but not limited to
				suspension, dismissal, reduction in pay, demotion, lateral action or
				reassignment, at the discretion of the agency head. Except when taken with
				respect to a career service employees permanent in their current position, such
				personnel actions are exempt from the provisions of Section 110.227, and
				Chapter 120, F.S.
(6) Any employee
				appointed for less than full-time employment shall have the salary, leave
				credits and other benefits prorated based on the full-time equivalency (FTE) of
				the position. Health insurance benefits are not prorated if a position is .75
				FTE or greater.
