Iltll Eovember 19, 1991 HEHORA~Lr~! TO: John Witherspoon, County Hana§er//~/\ j ~ROH: Jim Cook, Social S:rvices Dlrec or~~~ SUBJECT: Classification of Rev Clerical hpa~Uosttton ~e Board of Co~issione~s established a new Clerical Supe~isor ~osi~ion the iocial levites budget for the cur~en~ year (position 1-56-1~101-137.) We had initially anticipated this position would be classified as a Clerical Supervisor IV at Grade 59. Olti~ely, however, this position vas classified by ~he Sta~e as a Clerical Supe~isor V at Grade 61. (We ~de s~e chanEes in the position duties and ~esponsibilities in o[flel to make the mos~ use of this position.) Linda ~eilit ~ts p~o~ted to this position. She received ~he 5 percent pay increase to which ~he ~as entitled at the t~e of he~ p~omotion. (She would have · eceived the equivalent of a 5 percent, one step increase whether her new classification ve~e Clerical Supervisor IV o~ Clerical 5upe~isor V.) The~e is no Clerical Supe~isor V in the exiscint County Pay Plan. ~ticle II (paEe 8) of the Personnel Ordinance indicates the ~oard of Co=issioners establishes ney classes. ~ls beint the case, ~e planned in consultation with the Personnel Offict (and throuEh ~hat oliice with the Panance Oifice) to leave ~his position at the IV level until the next budset cycle when the Board would be dealin~ with othe~ classification issues, he ney classification could be added to the pay plan and F~. teilit could be assi8ned to the proper ciassifica~ion at that t~e. No further pay adjustment would be needed as ~. ~eilil his already received the pay increase to which she is entitled. Unfortunately, we have found that our retional DHR Personnel Office feels that ~. Heilit should be assiEned to the app~opriate classifica~ion nov. Re8ional Director, ~tha GeouEe, ~xplained to me tha~ State Personnel no~a!ly only delays assil~ent of hdivlduals to the appzop~iate class when a county has no~ budgeted to pay the affected intivit~l it the hithi~ rate of pay. ~e of course cannot cla~ this as ye are already pa~inI ~. ~eiliI at the ~ate to which she would be entitled were her classification correct.) ~padmenl of ~clal Ss~s P.O. ~ ~
