Any employee who held regular status in the county personnel system prior to his/her appointment to an exempt position may, upon termination of such exempt appointment, be eligible to return to the same or like position in the class in which regular standing was held in accordance with the provisions of chapter 3.68 SCC. Where return of the exempt employee to the classified service will displace another employee, a layoff shall be declared in accordance with these rules. (Added by Ord. 84-129 § 2, Nov. 21, 1984).
