Where it is known or expected by a department or agency of the State that permanent employees may be affected by an abolition, reduction, or movement of positions to a different location, pursuant to sections 80 and 80-a of the Civil Service Law, the head of such department or agency shall give notice thereof to the Department of Civil Service and shall submit to such department the names and titles of permanent employees expected to be affected. If a placement roster is created, the following principles shall apply:

(a)vacancies in positions in any State department or agency for which one or more employees on such placement roster are eligible and willing to accept transfer or reassignment shall be filled by such transfer or reassignment before appointment by any means except a preferred list or reemployment roster;
(b)any employee in the department or unit for suspension or demotion wherein the abolition, reduction, or relocation of positions will occur who holds a position in a title which is expected to be affected may have his or her name added to the placement roster to receive transfer or reassignment to other positions in the State service, or may be transferred or reassigned to another position in the same department or agency which will not be affected by such abolition or reduction; and
(c)employees on such placement roster who are not so transferred or reassigned prior to the abolition, reduction or relocation of positions shall, upon suspension, demotion or relocation, have their names entered on an appropriate preferred list pursuant to the Civil Service Law.
