Program to Hire Persons with Disabilities under section 55-b
The Governor's Programs to Hire Persons/Veterans with Disabilities consist of two specialized programs. These programs are coordinated efforts to place individuals with disabilities in entry-level State jobs. No initial written or oral examinations are required for appointment. You must however, submit a formal application and a medical evaluation may be necessary for program certification.
Section 55-b of the New York State Civil Service Law authorizes the New York State Civil Service Commission to designate up to 1,200 positions normally filled through competitive examination to be filled through the appointment of qualified persons with disabilities.
Section 55-a of Civil Service Law provides for the employment of persons with disabilities by municipalities. Each municipal civil service agency in the state may, by rule, determine a prescribed number of positions, not to exceed seven hundred positions, with duties that can be performed by physically or mentally disabled persons who are found qualified to perform duties.
