Within the Office of Administration, the State Personnel Law (Chapter 36 RSMo) provides for a Personnel Advisory Board of seven members, appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the Senate. The board conducts hearings for appeals for dismissals and other disciplinary actions and has broad rulemaking authority in various areas of personnel administration. Responsibilities also include advising the Division of Personnel on the administration of the Missouri Merit System, meeting with appointing authorities regarding personnel management needs, approving changes to classification and pay plans and making recommendations to the governor and the General Assembly regarding state compensation policy.
