§ 2498. Abolition of positions in the classified service

Whenever the appointing authority abolishes a position in the
classified service and there is no position vacant in the
respective class to which the regular employee of the abolished
position may be transferred, the employee shall be transferred to
any position of the same class which may be held by a provisional
employee. If there is no such position he shall be transferred to
another position in the respective class, and the holder of that
position shall thereupon be demoted in the order provided by R.S.
33:2488.

Whenever an entire class is abolished in the classified service,
the regular employees of the class shall be demoted to lower
classes and priority to positions shall be governed by total
seniority earned in the departmental service in the order of
highest to lowest.
