NAC284.436. Intermittent positions.

     1. An intermittent position is a position:

     (a) That is filled by a person who may be called to work at any time;

     (b) That is used to supplement the agency’s full-time staff; and

     (c) The compensation of which is separately identified in the budget of the agency.

     2. An appointing authority may hire an employee in an intermittent position to supplement the full-time staff of an agency when the staffing needs of the agency fluctuate because of changes in the amount of work.

     3. If a position is budgeted as an intermittent position, that position may only be underfilled pursuant to this chapter by an intermittent employee. An intermittent employee may only underfill a position that has been budgeted as an intermittent position.

     4. An employee in an intermittent position who has attained permanent status:

     (a) Must be given notice of any layoff affecting him or her not less than 1 week before the layoff; and

     (b) Has a right of reemployment if his or her last report on performance was standard or better. The right of reemployment is based on the same formula as that used for other employees except that it extends only to the cost center or division from which his or her employment was terminated. This right must not operate to the detriment of a permanent full-time employee.

     5. As used in this section, “cost center” means an organizational unit or group of organizational units within the Employment Security Division of the Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation.
