Kan. Admin. Regs. § 18-2-3 - Non-acceptable suggestions

(a) Suggestions related to the following subjects shall not be accepted for consideration:
(1) Suggestions which correct a condition that exists only because established procedures are not being followed;
(2) suggestions which have been considered or for which awards have been granted previously;
(3) suggestions which do not propose a method or way to make the improvement;
(4) suggestions which are developed as part of the duties of an employee's position. In determining suggestion acceptability, the employee's job description, assigned duties, and normal performance requirements of his or her position shall be considered in determining whether the suggestion is within or outside his or her job responsibilities;
(5) suggestions concerning routine maintenance of buildings, equipment or grounds which may be reported through regularly established channels. Where sustained complaints have not resulted in correction, the board may consider such a suggestion for an award;
(6) personal complaints or criticisms;
(7) suggestions requiring legislative action. However, if a suggestion which requires legislative action is judged as having merit, the board may forward it to the legislative coordinating council and inform the suggester of this action. If legislation is passed implementing the idea, the suggestion may be considered for an award by the board;
(8) suggestions which were under active consideration by management prior to having been made;
(9) anonymous suggestions; and
(10) suggestions for which the employee received a patent.
(b) Under special circumstances, the award board may authorize exceptions to the provisions of Subsection (a) in this regulation.
