N.D. Admin. Code 4-07-11-03
An appointing authority, after giving written notice to a classified employee, may cause an employee to lose his or her employment due to a reduction-in-force. Prior to initiating a reduction-in-force, an appointing authority shall carefully conduct a written analysis of the affected employees in the agency or in a division or unit within the agency to determine those employees who will be subject to the reduction-in-force. Affected employees means those employees in the same classification identified to be reduced in force within the agency, division, or unit within the agency. The appointing authority shall consider a comparison of the knowledge, skills, number of years and months an employee has in the classified service, other experience, and level of performance employees have with the knowledge, skills, and experience that the agency has determined it will need to accomplish the work to be done following the reduction-in-force.
