The Legislature believes that it should be the policy of Albany
County to inform candidates for grant-funded positions in County government,
before they are hired, of possible layoff in the future if the grant
is discontinued. The intent of the policy is to ensure that candidates
for these positions have been properly notified that the position
for which they are applying is grant-funded and that continued budgeting
for the position is contingent upon the County receiving further grant
funds.
It shall be the responsibility of Commissioners and agency heads
to inform job applicants during the interview process before the applicant
accepts the position.
The Albany County Legislature hereby adopts a policy of informing
candidates for grant-funded positions in Albany County government,
before they are hired, of the potential for layoff in the future if
the grant is discontinued.
