§ 2. Background Investigations.

The Commission shall maintain a list of sensitive job classifications or positions for which background investigations shall comprise a portion of the selection process. Applicants competing on entrance or promotional examinations for a classification or position which is considered sensitive must submit to a background investigation, after a department has determined that the applicant is qualified and has made a contingent offer of employment. Such rejection or removal shall be accomplished by a written notice from the Secretary, and the applicant shall have the right to appeal such removal or rejection to the Civil Service Commission.

All background investigations for sensitive classifications or positions shall be initiated by the Human Resources Department. The Human Resources Department shall notify the appropriate investigative agency of the need to conduct background investigations for certain applicants. The results of the background investigations shall be transmitted in confidence by the investigative agency to the Human Resources Department. The Secretary may notify the principal appointive officer of the results of such an investigation for the purpose of removing the applicant from the selection process, or if the background investigation results in information which adversely affects the applicants' performance in the classification or position in which he is currently serving.
