Rule R477-1
Definitions
Five-Year Notice of Review and Statement of Continuation
DAR File No.: 35821

NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Subsection 67-19-6(1)(j) gives the Department of Human Resource Management (DHRM) authority to adopt rules for human resource management. The department has opted to use a format that places key definitions in a separate rule for quick reference.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
The Department of Administrative Services, Division of Risk Management, submitted a written comment suggesting clearer language, which was changed. Utah Public Employees Association expressed that several definitions contained unnecessary information. They also opposed the removal of several definitions and terms in 2010. These were removed because of redundancy. DHRM comments over the five-year period focused on reducing the number of definitions, to include many in the body of other rules. A few definitions were added to clarify new terms. Some changes to definitions reflected changes in laws.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
In order to assist the reader of DHRM rules in understanding key terms, especially technical terms, this rule is dedicated to definitions. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
