AN  ACT  to  amend  the  civil service law, in relation to suspension or
  demotion upon the abolition or reduction of positions for labor  class
  titles

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subdivision 6 of section 80 of the civil  service  law,  as
added  by  chapter 283 of the laws of 1972 and renumbered by chapter 360
of the laws of 1985, is amended to read as follows:
  6. Displacement in civil divisions. A permanent incumbent of  a  posi-
tion  in a civil division in a specific title to which there is a direct
line of promotion, OR WHERE INCUMBENTS IN TITLES IN THE LABOR CLASS  WHO
HAVE  TAKEN  THE  EXAM  AND BEEN PROMOTED TO THE POSITION OF A PERMANENT
INCUMBENT  PURSUANT  TO  SECTION  FIFTY-TWO  OF  THIS  CHAPTER,  who  is
suspended or displaced pursuant to this section, together with all other
such incumbents suspended or displaced at the same time, shall displace,
in  the  inverse order of the order of suspension or demotion prescribed
in subdivisions one and two of this section, incumbents serving in posi-
tions in the same lay-off unit in  the  next  lower  occupied  title  in
direct  line  of  promotion  OR IN THE TITLE IN THE LABOR CLASS IN WHICH
INCUMBENTS WERE EXTENDED THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE THE  PROMOTIONAL  EXAM-
INATION  FOR THE POSITION OF THE SUSPENDED OR DISPLACED PERMANENT INCUM-
BENT PURSUANT TO  SECTION  FIFTY-TWO  OF  THIS  CHAPTER,  who  shall  be
displaced  in the order of suspension or demotion prescribed in subdivi-
sions one and two of this section; provided, however, that no  incumbent
shall displace any other incumbent having greater retention standing. If
a  permanent incumbent of a position in a civil division is suspended or
displaced from a position in a title for which there are no lower  level
occupied  positions  in  direct line of promotion, he shall displace the
incumbent with the least retention right pursuant  to  subdivisions  one

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
