Must employees who are appointed to a position through the layoff process serve any type of review period?
An employer may require a six-month transition review period when an employee is appointed to a position as a layoff option or is appointed from the internal or statewide layoff list or the general government transition pool. (See WAC 357-46-115 for exceptions to this rule.) The transition review period may be extended for leave without pay in accordance with WAC 357-31-355.
