The Honorable, The Senate:
The Written Hiring Reasons Report for Wisconsin State Government is enclosed. The report, covering the periods July 1, 1995, through June 30, 1996 and July 1, 1996, through June 30, 1997, is required under ss.
230.25 (1p) and
230.27 (2k), Wis. Stats., created by
1991 Wisconsin Act 101. Act 101 made several changes in Wisconsin civil service law regarding veterans preference and affirmative action. The law requires "written hiring reasons" for certain hiring transactions and requires the Department of Employment Relations to summarize the hiring reasons and prepare an annual report.
Information for this report came from summary information provided by each agency. Your efforts and cooperation in compiling the summary reports is appreciated. The report includes a summary and information for each state agency and the UW System unit.
If you have any questions, please contact Claire Dehnert, Division of Affirmative Action, at (608) 267-1005.
Sincerely,
Jon E. Litscher
