Merit Sole Basis of Reemployment Office Placements
Raleigh December 22 The Reemployment Service continues to place workers on the merit basis at the state employment office. Officials emphasize that qualifications and fitness determine job assignments, not political connections. The program aims to align job offers with applicants abilities across departments and industries.
Merit and fitness govern job placements despite political pull
State Director Capus M. Waynick said workers are placed solely on classification and need, not on who they are or political influence. He noted some try to obtain jobs on Civil Works or Public Works projects through political pull, but those efforts are not succeeding and merit remains the primary consideration.
