Such transfer shall not result in a loss to the employee of any <br />vacation leave, sick leave, disability leave or any other benefits. <br />ARTICLE 11 <br />PROMOTION <br />11.1 Examination <br />In the event the City desires to fill a vacancy by promotion, the Personnel Officer shall prepare and <br />administer an examination for those employees holding similar positions in lower classes. <br />Promotional examinations scheduled by the City during an employee's regular working hours may be taken <br />without any loss in compensation. <br />11.2 Eligibility List <br />After each examination has been scored and rated, the names of successful candidates shall be recorded <br />on an eligibility list in the order of their standing on the examination. Eligibility lists shall continue in effect for <br />one (1) year after establishment. They may be extended for a period of not to exceed one (1) year or <br />abolished before the expiration of the yearly period by the Personnel Officer upon recommendation of the <br />department head of the department to which the classification or position relating to the eligibility list is <br />allocated. The name of any employee on an eligibility list may be removed by the Personnel Officer: if the <br />eligible employee requests in writing that his or her name be removed; if he or she fails to respond to a <br />written offer of employment within five (5) business days after the mailing of notice; if a subsequent report of <br />a character investigation is unsatisfactory; or if he or she has been rejected for appointment three (3) times, <br />by a department head. <br />Each employee on an eligibility list shall have the right to waive two (2) successive offers of employment <br />without affecting his or her standing on the eligibility list. However, after the third offer of employment has <br />been waived, the employee's name shall be removed from the eligibility list. <br />11.3 Promotional Appointment <br />Promotional Appointments shall be made from the first three (3) candidates on the eligibility list who are <br />ready and willing to accept the position offered. <br />11.4 Probationary Period for Promotional Appointments <br />The probationary period for promotional appointments shall be one (1) year. Upon written recommendation <br />of a probationary employee's department head and the approval of the Personnel Officer, a probationary <br />period may be lengthened by an amount of time corresponding to an employee's leave of absence during <br />the probationary period, <br />
