To get started, it's important to understand the process of applying for services and what programs you may be eligible for. The first step is to pre-select the programs you may be eligible for. You can apply for SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) in person at one of the four centers, by submitting a request by mail, or through www. MyBenefits.ny.gov, however, it is only a pre-screening tool and does not determine eligibility. In addition to SNAP, there are other programs offered by the Suffolk County Department of Social Services that may be beneficial to you.
These include working-class positions as defined in Article 43 of the State Public Service Act, which are listed in Appendix C and form part of these Rules. When a pre-evaluation evaluation is offered, it will be conducted at a time and place specified by the Suffolk County Personnel Officer. Any temporary person who has not passed the examination for a permanent appointment or who is not on the list of eligible persons must be removed from office within sixty (60) days of the creation of the list of eligible persons, except as provided in section 65 of the Public Service Act. In the same municipality, readmission to the same municipality within one year does not constitute an interruption of service. Nothing in this Rule shall be construed to limit or otherwise affect the power of the appointing authority to remove a person on parole for incompetence or misconduct at any time during the probationary period, under a contractual disciplinary procedure or under section 75 of the Public Service Act. Promotion field: three or more employees from a municipality who meet the promotion requirements defined by the Department of Public Administration for a competitive class position and who indicate their willingness to accept the position. When a public service exam is submitted to obtain the degree, the temporary employee must sit for the exam, pass it, and be available to be named a member of the resulting list of candidates in order to be retained. The county personnel officer may modify these rules subject to a public hearing and approval by the State Public Service Commission. Prior service in another municipality is not included in the employee's retention capacity, unless the person has been transferred.
The Department of Public Administration may require that the candidate taking the exam for any competitive position in a municipality be a resident or employee of the municipality. Jurisdictional classification: The assignment of classified service posts to competitive, non-competitive, exempt, or labor classes. When it is discovered that a permanent and substantial change has been made to the roles and responsibilities of the position, the Department of Public Administration assigns a title that most appropriately describes the new functions of the position. Resignation followed by readmission more than one year after resignation constitutes an interruption of service, and the date of the original appointment is the date of reinstatement. A current employee with continuous service in a municipality may be reinstated, within that municipality, to a competitive title held after the probationary period in that municipality, regardless of how much time has elapsed since they held that title, or to a comparable or lower-level title in their promotion hotline. In addition to preferential list rights, an employee who is dismissed from public administration in a municipality will have right to be reinstated in accordance with points 1 or 2 above. In addition to positions specifically excluded under Section 75 of State Public Service Act, any appointment of veteran (as defined in Section 85 State Public Administration Act) or exempt volunteer firefighter (as defined in Section 200 State General Municipal Act) to position non-competitive, labor or exempt class is for trial period twenty-six weeks.
