A change in an employee's employment status requires a personnel action by the human resources department based on a request from the employee's department. Such requests should include the old and new employment information and effective date. Employees may progress through a job hierarchy from entry-level positions requiring less skill to jobs requiring more knowledge and skill. Organizations also have career paths representing lines of advancement within occupational fields. Employment status types include full-time, part-time, probationary, permanent, and others. Promotions consider performance records, potential ability, recommendations, and sometimes seniority. Demotions and separations like resignations and terminations also affect employment status.

as a result of a reorganization, if the reorganization results in a reduction-in-force.

than the maximum of the new salary range.
2. If the demotion occurred as a result of a reorganization and not because of
