Minn. R. agency 171, ch. 7520, CLASSIFICATION PLAN, pt. 7520.0530
When a position is reclassified and it is determined to be a reallocation resulting from a significant change in the duties and responsibilities of the position occurring gradually over a period of time, the supervisor shall authorize an appointing authority to promote the incumbent of the reallocated position. Any employee promoted in accordance with this subpart shall serve a probationary period in the higher class.
When a position is reclassified resulting from a change in allocation, the incumbent shall not be deemed eligible to continue in the position unless eligible for original appointment, promotion, transfer, or demotion to the new class of positions. If ineligible to continue in such a position, the incumbent may be transferred, promoted, or demoted by appropriate action of the appointing authority in accordance with such provisions of parts 7520.0100 to 7520.1100 as may be deemed to be applicable. If ineligibility of a permanent or probationary incumbent of a reclassified position arises from the existence of an eligible register established from an examination that the incumbent did not take, the incumbent may be permitted to take the same or equivalent examination from which the existing register was established, without the examination being open for application. At that time, the county will notify other employees that they may also apply and take the examination. The names of successful candidates examined under this part shall be placed on the existing register in accordance with the score attained. In any case in which the incumbent is ineligible to continue in the position and is not transferred, promoted, or demoted, the provisions of parts 7520.0100 to 7520.1100 about layoff shall apply. Any transfer, promotion, demotion, or layoff in accordance with these provisions must occur within 60 days of the notification of reclassification of the position.
