The bill establishes that employees of certain state officials, specifically the secretary of state, state auditor, state treasurer, and superintendent of public instruction, will be classified as at-will employees. This means they can be terminated at any time, with or without cause, as long as it does not violate federal or state law. Additionally, these employees are exempt from the executive branch's personnel rules, including those related to compensation, job classifications, and employee discipline. The bill also outlines the role of human resource officers, who will be hired by a committee of the state officials and will manage HR and payroll activities while maintaining confidentiality.

Furthermore, the bill ensures that existing employment contracts prior to July 1, 2025, remain unaffected and clarifies that employees will only be considered at-will if explicitly stated in their contracts. It also includes a provision for the transfer of funds and positions to support the hiring of the new human resource officers, with an appropriation of $236,720 and two full-time positions being transferred from the department of administration and information to the state auditor's office. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
