• Temporary Services Reporting
In an effort to foster a highly qualified and dedicated state workforce, and to promote workforce stability and continuity, Executive Directive 2006-3, effective July 26, 2006, requires departments to provide notice to the OSE of each temporary personal service contract assignment, and requires OSE authorization for placements lasting longer than 480 hours.
Reporting and approval requirements are the same as they were under ED 2004-9 (which has been rescinded), except that they are now extended to all temporary placements. The form for submitting information and extension requests can be found on this page under the "FORMS" tab, Other Forms at left.
