A recruitment bonus may be provided by an agency if the employee receiving the bonus was not employed by a state agency immediately preceding employment with the hiring agency, except when a recruitment bonus is provided to an employee for a referral program outlined in the agency's recruitment policy. If application of this rule would result in significant impact on the agency or negative fiscal consequences to the state, an exception may be sought under section 4-07-02-06.
