The director of the office of state employment relations may institute temporary pay administration policies as required to facilitate the handling of such declared emergencies.
20.901(2) (2)Employee powers and privileges. Whenever the employees of any state agency are assigned or required hereunder to perform services for any other state agency, such employees are vested with all powers and may enjoy all privileges necessary to perform the duties and execute the functions imposed upon and delegated to them and may perform such services and exercise such powers in the same manner, to the same extent and with like effect as though regularly appointed therefor.
