§ 97. Reports of appointing officers; official roster. 1. No person

shall be appointed to or be employed in any position in the classified

service of the state or of any civil division thereof, for which rules

have been established pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, until

he has passed an examination or is exempted from such examination in

conformity with the provisions of this chapter or the rules established

thereunder. It shall be the duty of each appointing officer of the state

or of any civil division thereof to report to the state civil service

department or municipal commission having jurisdiction, forthwith upon

such appointment or employment, the name of such appointee or employee,

action in or knowledge of each case, any separation of a person from the

service, or other change therein, and such other information as such

civil service department or municipal commission may require in order to

keep the roster hereinafter mentioned.

maintain an official roster of the classified service under its

jurisdiction. Such roster shall contain in detail the employment history

of each employee, showing each change of status or compensation from the

time he enters service until he separates from service, except that it

shall not be necessary to enter in such roster the compensation or

changes in compensation of an employee holding a position classified

pursuant to article eight of this chapter or classified by a municipal

commission and listed in a salary grade plan containing titles and

specific ranges of salary for each title duly adopted by a municipality

or agency under the jurisdiction of such municipal commission.
