A regular employee may appeal a reduction-in-force only on the basis that the agency did not utilize a uniform comparative analysis as required by section 4-07-11-03 or that the reduction-in-force was conducted in a discriminatory manner that would violate the state's policy against discrimination as stated in North Dakota Century Code section 14-02.4-01. A former regular employee who was reduced in force may appeal a denial of reemployment only on the basis that the agency did not follow section 4-07-11-07 or that the denial of reemployment was conducted in a discriminatory manner that would violate the state's policy against discrimination as stated in North Dakota Century Code section 14-02.4-01. The assessment of whether an individual meets the qualifications necessary for successful performance shall remain with the agency.
