Digest
SB 1441 requires the Texas Workforce Commission to enhance the online state employment system by allowing applicants to submit a standardized aptitude test along with a single application to multiple state agencies. The bill also directs the state auditor to develop a uniform skills assessment, with state agencies required to review job classifications annually to determine necessary skills. Agencies may also administer specialized aptitude tests but must ensure that failure to complete the standardized test does not impact hiring decisions​.
