If the person is reemployed in a new position and fails to complete the probationary period in the new position, he or she shall be returned to the reemployment list for the remainder of the 39-month period.

still apply. The personnel commission shall make the determination of the specific period eligibility for reemployment on a class-by-class basis.

demotion or a voluntary reduction in assigned time in lieu of layoff shall be, at the option of the employee, returned to a position in his or her former class or to a position with increased assigned time as vacancies become available, and without limitation of time, but
if there is a valid reemployment list the employee shall be ranked on that list in accordance with his or her proper seniority.
