Kapitel XX, Art. 1:
"Civil Service. The legislature shall provide for a non-partisan and independent
civil service with the duty to establish and administer personnel policies for
the Commonwealth Government. The Commission shall be composed of seven members
appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the senate. Six members
shall serve a term of six years, staggered in such manner that the term of one
member expires each year, and one member shall serve a term of four years expiring
concurrently with the term of the governor. Members of the civil service commission
may be removed only for cause. The commission's authority shall extend to positions
other than those filled by election or by appointment of the governor in the
departments and agencies of the executive branch and in the administrative staffs
of the legislative and judicial branches. Exemption from the civil service shall
be as provided by law, and the commission shall be the sole authority authorized
by law to exempt positions from civil service classification. Appointment and
promotion within the civil service shall be based on merit and fitness demonstrated
by examination or by other evidence of competence."
