I havent looked into this more myself yet, and it be interesting to see a legal point here.

But if I were to employ someone by accident its tough luck to me, I have to deal with that decision as at that point i have entered a contract with the worker. Generally the law should supercede any company policy.

So the ? here for me is if the civil service is excempt from normal employment laws.
