State regulations are updated quarterly; we currently have two versions available. Below is a comparison between our most recent version and the prior quarterly release. More comparison features will be added as we have more versions to compare.

The purpose of the State Personnel Board Rules and Director's Administrative Procedures is to establish a comprehensive system of rules and procedures for employees within the state personnel system. In order to distinguish the Board from the Director's Procedures, rules promulgated by the State Personnel Board are noted as "Board Rules". Rules adopted by the Board and procedures adopted by the Director require the formal rulemaking process defined in the Administrative Procedures Act.

Pursuant to § 24-50-101(3)(b), C.R.S., it is the duty of the State Personnel Board to provide fair and timely resolution of the cases before it. Pursuant to § 24-50-101(3)(c), C.R.S., it is the duty of the State Personnel Director to establish the general criteria for adherence to the merit principles and for fair treatment of individuals within the state personnel system.

Preamble

This version reflects changes to Chapter 5, Time Off that became effective on August 7, 2023. These changes are additions to the Director's Administrative Procedures, modifying Sick Leave in Chapter 5, Time Off. These changes also create the alignment of the Director's Administrative Procedures with current law SB 23-017.
