Study Notes
Job Classification System
- Positions can be reclassified to a different classification if there are significant and permanent changes in actual job duties or responsibilities.
- Human Resources conducts a review of the position's duties and responsibilities, obtaining necessary information and requiring the employee to complete a Comprehensive Position Questionnaire (CPQ).
- The CPQ must be reviewed by the employee's supervisor and chain of command, and field studies and/or on-site audits may be conducted if appropriate.
Salary Reclassification
- Positions reclassified to higher pay ranges are increased to the step closest to 5% or the higher pay range's minimum rate, whichever is greater.
- Employees with cases of overlapping pay ranges where the employee is at or above the reclassified pay's minimum rate are increased at least 5%, provided there is room in the new range.
- Employees reclassified to lower pay ranges will not receive more than the lower pay range's maximum rate, and employees with pay rates above the lower classification's maximum rate are reduced to the lower maximum rate.
Creating New Classifications
- Departments/bureaus wanting to establish a new classification or change a classification title must submit a written request from their director to the Human Resources Director.
- Copies of job descriptions are available to all employees in Human Resources.
Out of Classification Pay
- Qualified employees may be directed to work in a higher job classification on a temporary or continuing basis if a vacancy exists.
- Employees eligible for out of classification pay receive 5% of their current straight time rate of pay or pay in accordance with provisions of their applicable bargaining unit above their regular pay for the assignment.
- Temporary Out of Classification Assignment forms are used for assignments lasting less than 12 weeks (480 hours), and Continuing Out of Classification Assignment forms are used for assignments lasting more than 12 weeks (480 hours).
- Forms must be completed by the employee's supervisor, including justification for the assignment, and must be authorized by the employee's chain of command and approved by Human Resources.
