HIRING AND RECRUITMENT |
Public Works has more staff working part-time or on a schedule of fewer than 1,040 hours annually because of the nature of the budget and the programs . For example , the highly successful Commercial Corridor Program ( included in the TEX column ), which began in the FY2019 budget , was only funded using temporary salaries in the budget , requiring Public Works to hire exempt staff , generally on a part-time basis . Black employees make up 32 % of TEX workers , while Public Works overall is 21 % Black . |
but no applicant pool of eligible employees is available , departments are allowed to hire provisional ( or temporary ) employees . Provisional employees may not receive the same benefits as permanent employees and they may be “ bumped ” or laid off in favor of a permanent employee .)

An overwhelming majority , 1,019 or 69 %, of these positions are permanent civil service ( PCS ) hires . However , because of the nature of the work performed by Public Works , much of which is project-based , the department will always have a higher number of exempt hires since so much of the work is contingent on work orders from other City departments . PCS positions have larger proportions of white employees ( 27 % versus 24 % overall ) and a lower proportion of Black employees ( 17 % versus 21 % overall ).
There are currently 464 employees with an exempt appointment , either a temporaryexempt appointment ( TEX ) or a permanentexempt appointment ( PEX ). Under civil service rules and / or budgeted restrictions , some positions can only be hired as an exempt appointment . These positions , totaling 201 or 43 % of all exempts , include department head , deputy directors , Prop . F retirees , director appointments , interns , Commercial Corridor positions and apprenticeship positions .
