Crediting Provisional Time (S.5494 Jackson / A.7155 Pheffer Amato)
A bill has been signed into law, which requires that any time spent as a provisional employee be counted towards an employee's probationary term upon receiving a permanent appointment in the same title. This law went into effect on September 7, 2023
What was the law before?
Employees can spend years as a provisional employee as they wait for available civil service tests. Once appointed to a permanent role, they can be required to spend up to an additional year on probation.

Are taxes stunting your growth?
Did you know that by contributing to New York State Deferred Compensation Plan you can put off paying taxes on your contributions and any earnings.
The plan is tax-deferred . That means that you pay less current federal and New York State income taxes today and have the opportunity for your money to grow tax-deferred. You don't pay taxes until you decide to make withdrawals, which are taxed as ordinary income.
Investing involves market risk, including possible loss of principal.
Be tax smart.
Sign-up for the Plan today.
