2006 New York Code - Transfer Of Employees.

 
    § 241. Transfer  of  employees.  Upon the transfer of functions to the
  department pursuant to this article, provision should be  made  for  the
  transfer  to  the  department  of  such  employees of the public service
  commission and the department of  public  service  who  are  engaged  in
  carrying  out  such  functions  as  the  chairman  of the public service
  commission may deem necessary for the exercise of the  functions  herein
  transferred  to  the  department.    Employees  so  transferred shall be
  transferred without  further  examination  or  qualification  and  shall
  retain  their  respective  civil service classifications and status. For
  the purpose of determining the employees holding permanent  appointments
  in  competitive  class positions to be transferred, such employees shall
  be selected within each  class  of  positions  in  the  order  of  their
  original  appointment,  with  due  regard  to the right of preference in
  retention of disabled and non-disabled veterans. Any such employee  who,
  at the time of such transfer, has a temporary or provisional appointment
  shall  be  transferred subject to the same right of removal, examination
  or termination as though such transfer  had  not  been  made.  Employees
  holding  permanent  appointments  in competitive class positions who are
  not transferred pursuant to this section shall have their names  entered
  upon  an  appropriate  preferred  list for reinstatement pursuant to the
  civil service law.
