        AN  ACT  to  amend  the  civil service law, in relation to employment of

          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 

     1    Section  1. Section 55-a of the civil service law is amended by adding
     2  a new subdivision 5 to read as follows:
     3    5. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a municipal  commission
     4  shall  treat  employees  appointed  pursuant  to  the provisions of this
     5  section, who are holding or who have held a position in the non-competi-
     6  tive class, as if they were employees in the  competitive  class  where,
     7  because  of  economy, consolidation, or abolition of functions, curtail-
     8  ment of activities or otherwise, a number of such  positions  in  either
     9  the  non-competitive  or competitive classes are abolished or reduced in
    10  rank or salary grade, suspension or demotion,  as  further  provided  in
    11  title  C of article five of this chapter. For purposes of seniority, the

    12  date an employee is appointed pursuant to this section, shall be  deemed
    13  equivalent  to  the  date  a  competitive  employee is appointed from an
    14  eligible list.
    15    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
