Executive Order 3011

by President of the United States

The names of persons in the competitive classified service with unrestricted status who were appointed, either permanently or probationally prior to the date hereof, and who have served less than three years, and who are separated from the service because of a reduction of force, and who are recommended for further employment by the Government because of demonstrated efficiency in the office from which they are separated, will, upon request, be entered by the Civil Service Commission upon appropriate eligible registers for reappointment, eligibility thereon to continue for one year from date of separation.

Such reemployment registers will be separate and apart from the registers of the Commission resulting from current examinations, and eligibility thereon, and certifications and appointments therefrom, shall in all respects conform to the usual practice and procedure, except that certifications of persons formerly in the apportioned service shall be made without regard to the apportionment.

The departments in making requisition on the Commission for certifications of eligibles shall state whether they prefer certification to be made from a reemployment register or from a regular register of the Commission.

It is desirable that the Departments in making requisitions request certification from the reemployment registers so far as practicable, having in view the efficient performance of Government work.

Woodrow Wilson 

The White House,

29 November, 1918.
