Summary

Existing law, the State Civil Service Act, establishes standards for the use of personal services contracts. Any state agency proposing to execute a contract pursuant to these standards is required to notify the State Personnel Board of its intention. Any employee organization may request, within 10 days of notification, the State Personnel Board to review any contract proposed or executed pursuant to the law governing these contracts. The State Personnel Board, at the request of an employee organization that represents state employees, is also required to review the adequacy of any proposed or executed contract, as specified. This bill would additionally authorize, if the State Personnel Board either disapproves a proposed contract prior to execution or disapproves an executed contract based on the reviews described above, the department or agency submitting the contract to appoint a limited term employee, as defined, for the equivalent number of hours for each contractor position requested in the submitted contract. The bill would also require the department or agency to provide written notice of the appointment to the chairpersons of specified legislative committees.
