Summary of Assembly Bill A 4193

Overview

A 4193 would require that school district employees who have been provisionally appointed to a position for at least nine months, and for which no exam was offered for the position, receive a permanent appointment.

  • Bill number: A 4193
  • Title: Provides for school district employees who have been provisionally appointed to a position for at least nine months without an exam being offered for such position to receive a permanent appointment
  • Introduced: January 31, 2025
  • Status: Referred to the Governmental Employees committee
  • Classification: bill
  • Sponsor(s): Primary sponsor Nader Sayegh; cosponsor Judy Griffin
  • Related bill: A 8312 (prior-session)

Purpose and Intent

The bill aims to provide job security and a path to permanent employment for school district staff who have been filling a position on a provisional basis for an extended period (nine months or more) when no formal examination process was offered for that position. By converting qualifying provisional appointments into permanent appointments, the measure seeks to reduce temporary staffing gaps and acknowledge sustained service in the absence of an exam.

Key Provisions (as stated in the summary)

  • A provisionally appointed school district employee who has served in the position for at least nine months would be entitled to a permanent appointment.
  • The eligibility is contingent on the condition that no examination was offered for the position during the provisional period.
  • The summary does not specify additional requirements beyond the nine-month threshold and the absence of an offered exam; the full bill text would define any further criteria, processes, or limitations.

Who Would Be Affected

  • School district employees who hold a position on a provisional basis for nine months or longer
  • School districts and their human resources/school governance structures that manage appointment and examination processes

Procedural and Timeline Considerations

  • Introduced: January 31, 2025
  • Current status: Referred to the Governmental Employees committee (no other actions listed in the provided information)
  • Legislative route: As a committee-referred bill, it would move through hearings, potential amendments, and floor votes before passing or failing, depending on committee and chamber actions
