This bill aims to encourage public employers in Michigan to implement an expedited hiring process for individuals referred for employment by a reemployment team under the reemployment services for dislocated federal employees act. The definition of "public employer" is expanded to include various governmental entities, such as cities, counties, school districts, and public universities that choose to adopt the provisions of this act. The bill emphasizes that if the public employer is the state, the expedited hiring process must comply with the relevant constitutional provisions.
Additionally, the bill clarifies that it does not override existing laws related to employment practices established in 1897 PA 205. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of House Bill No. 4758 from the 103rd Legislature.
