A transfer of an employe from a position in one division to a position in same class or rank in another division may be made with the approval of the director and of the appointing authorities of both divisions. No employe shall be transferred from a position in one class to a position in an other class of a higher rank or for which there are substantially dissimilar require ments for appointment unless he is ap pointed to such later position after certifi cation of his name from a list in accordance with the provisions of this act. A n y change of an employe from a position in one class to a position in a class of lower rank shall be considered a demotion and shall be made only in accordance with the proce dure prescribed for dismissal, except when an employe submits to the director a w rit ten request for change to a class of lower rank, and the request 4s granted, such change shall be termed a “voluntary trans fe r.” Section 16. 1. Every person appointed to a position in the classified service after certification of his name from an employ ment list shall serve a trial service period of six months, or shall satisfactorily com plete a period of in-service training, stan dards of which are satisfactory to the com mission. A t such times during the trial service period and in such manner as the director m ay require, the appointing au thority shall report to the director his ob servation of the employe’s work, and ju d g ment as to the employe’s willingness and ability to perform his duties satisfactorily, and as to his habits and dependability. A t any time during his trial service period, after the first two months thereof, the appointing authority may remove an em ploye if, in the opinion of the appointing authority, the trial service indicates that such employe is unable or unw illing to perform his duties satisfactorily or that his habits and dependability do not merit his continuance in the service. Upon such re moval, the appointing authority shall forth with report to the director, and to the em ploye removed, his action and the reason therefor. No more than three employes shall be removed successively from the same position during their trial service periods without the approval of the direc tor. The appointing authority m ay remove an employe within the first two months of his trial service period only with the ap proval of the director. The director may remove an employe during his trial service period if he finds, after giving him notice and an opportunity to be heard by the commission, that such employe was ap pointed as a result of fraud or error. 2. The employe shall be deemed to have served satisfactorily his trial service per iod, and to be a regular employe, unless at least 10 days prior to the expiration of such trial service period the appointing authority has notified the director in w rit ing that the employe’s services have not, been satisfactory. 3. If any employe is removed from his position during or at the end of his trial service period, and the director determines that he is suitable for appointment to an other position, his name m ay be restored to the list from which it was certified. If any such employe was a regular employe in another position in the classified service immediately prior to his appointment, he shall be reinstated to his form er position unless charges are filed and he is dis charged as provided in this act.

In cooperation with appoint ing authorities, the commission shall estab lish standards of performance for employes in each class of positions in the classified service or for groups of classes, and a sys tem of merit ratings based upon such standards.
