This bill amends Sections 67-5303 and 67-5302 of the Idaho Code to classify executive employees as nonclassified employees within the state's personnel administration system. Specifically, it adds the phrase "and all executive" to the definition of nonclassified employees in Section 67-5303, thereby expanding the category of nonclassified positions to include executive employees. Additionally, the definition of "executive employee" in Section 67-5302 is revised to remove the terms "nonclassified or classified," indicating that only nonclassified positions will be recognized as executive roles.

The bill also includes a declaration of emergency, stating that it will take effect on July 1, 2025. This change aims to clarify the classification of executive employees and streamline the personnel administration process within Idaho's state departments. By defining executive employees as nonclassified, the bill potentially alters the hiring, management, and operational frameworks for these positions, aligning them with the existing nonclassified employee structure.
