<p class="MsoNormal">Due to the current challenges in recruiting staff, the Governor has decided to lift the 1039 hour limit on retirees working in the Executive Branch of state government. While we realize this will not solve our recruitment challenges, we
believe it is one tool in the tool box to help agencies meet their staffing needs. We ask you to continue your diligent efforts in recruiting a diverse workforce.
