resignation in lieu of dismissal for cause, shall automatically be placed on the

reemployment list for the class from which he was terminated. If a career employee

wishes to be on the reemployment list for other classes of positions for which he is

qualified and passes the appropriate selection method, he shall notify the cabinet in

writing.

(2)If more than one

(1)career employee requests to be placed on the reemployment list

for any job classification, the cabinet shall list the names of such career employees

in the order of their seniority.

(3)No vacancy may be filled from a competitive register until all career employees on

the reemployment list for that class of position have denied employment in that

class. An appointing authority may refuse to reemploy a qualified employee on the

reemployment list only for cause. The secretary and the employee shall be

furnished with a written statement of the specific reasons for the refusal within ten

(10)days following the appointing authority's refusal. The employee may appeal

the appointing authority's action in accordance with KRS 18A.095 and 18A.100.
