State eyes rule changes amid layoffs concerns panel says
Personnel Ward and other Democrats on the panel question admin moves to rewrite rules as a prelude to mass layoffs tied to revenue shortfalls. Kraig Knowlton denies pending layoffs, noting a 15 percent state workforce drop since 2010 with 285 layoffs in five years. The changes target classified workers under civil service, while officials argue shifts to unclassified roles boost efficiency. A public hearing is set for Sept 27 in Topeka.
