Department:

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SERVICES

Division:

Personnel Management System

Overview

RULE:

60LER17-2

Amendment of Rule 60L-32.0071, F.A.C.

SPECIFIC REASONS FOR FINDING AN IMMEDIATE DANGER TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY OR WELFARE:

Executive Order 17-235 declared a state of emergency for the State of Florida because Hurricane Irma poses a severe threat to the entire State of Florida and requires that timely precautions are taken to protect the communities, critical infrastructure, and general welfare of this State.

REASON FOR CONCLUDING THAT THE PROCEDURE IS FAIR UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES:

The procedure is fair in that it temporarily provides all agencies with the ability to provide necessary compensation to the additional employees that need to be deployed for the purpose of avoiding the prevention, hindrance, or delay of actions coping with the emergency; provides at least the procedural protections given by other statutes, the State Constitution, or the United States Constitution; and takes only action that is necessary to protect the public interest under the emergency procedures in a manner that treats all similarly affected state employees fairly.

SUMMARY:

This rule modifies rule 60L-32.0071, F.A.C., to allow agencies to provide extraordinary payment to employees at the bureau chief or bureau chief comparable level under certain circumstances.

THE PERSON TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THE EMERGENCY RULE IS:

Brittany B. Griffith, Deputy General Counsel, Department of Management Services, 4050 Esplanade Way, Suite 160, Tallahassee, FL 32399-0950, (850)487-1082, brittany.griffith@dms.myflorida.com.
