27 Miss. Code. R. 120-2.6 - [Effective until 7/1/2025] EMPLOYEE DISCIPLINARY ACTION, GRIEVANCE, AND APPEAL RIGHTS

Mississippi Code Annotated § 25-9-127 requires that State Service employees may only be dismissed or otherwise adversely affected as to compensation or employment status for inefficiency or other good cause. The statute also requires that such personnel action must be in accordance with policies and procedures promulgated by the MSPB, complying with due process of law. Chapter 7 of this handbook contains the policies and procedures concerning employee corrective and disciplinary action for State Service employees. A Non-State Service employee may be dismissed or otherwise adversely affected as to compensation or employment status, with or without cause and is not entitled to due process of law.

Chapters 8 and 9 contain the policies and procedures for employee grievances and appeals to the Mississippi Employee Appeals Board (MEAB).
