Upon written request of an appointing authority to and with the approval of the supervisor, an employee who has successfully passed a merit examination and has acquired permanent status in a class under chapter 9575 may be reinstated to a position in the same class at any time within two years after the date of resignation in good standing. Under the same conditions, a reinstatement may be made within a period of time, not to exceed five years, equivalent to the continuous period of the employee's service since January 1, 1940, in a county welfare agency. Reinstatement shall be without benefit of previously acquired seniority. Upon approval of the supervisor, reinstatement may be made directly by an appointing authority, provided that there is a vacancy.
