Current through June 17, 2024
Regular employees or their supervisors may request a review
				  of the employee's job classification at any time providing the position has not
				  been reviewed within the previous twelve (12) months. The employee's
				  supervisor(s) may request of Human Resources a waiver of the twelve (12) month
				  interval requirement. An employee may make the request to the Human Resources
				  Office through their immediate supervisor or a supervisor may make the request
				  directly to the Human Resources Office. Following such request by an employee
				  or supervisor, the Human Resources Office will review the placement of such
				  employee. Such review by the Human Resources Office will include the review of
				  a Position Description Questionnaire completed by the employee and reviewed by
				  the employee's supervisor(s) and the appropriate Office Administrator. The
				  Position Description Questionnaire will be provided to the employee by the
				  Human Resources Office within five (5) workdays of such request.

				workdays to complete the Position Description Questionnaire, including
				supervisor's and Office Administrator's review, and return it to the Human
				Resources Office.

Human Resources
. The Human Resources Office will have
				twenty (20) workdays from the receipt of the completed Position Description
				Questionnaire to complete the review of the job reclassification request and
				make a decision. A copy of Human Resources' decision will be forwarded to the
				supervisor(s), the Office Administrator and the employee. If Human Resources'
				decision is to retain the employee's classification or reclassify the employee
				to a higher job specification, the decision is final. If the decision of the
				Human Resources Office is to reclassify to a lower job specification, the
				supervisor(s), the Office Administrator, and the employee will then have an
				opportunity to provide comments and/or documentation to the Deputy Commissioner
				to appeal Human Resources' decision within ten (10) workdays.

				supervisor(s), the appropriate Office Administrator, and the employee within
				five (5) workdays of the decision.
If the decision of the Human Resources Office is to classify
				  the employee to a higher job specification, and a pay adjustment is warranted,
				  the pay adjustment will be effective the next pay period.
002.03A The time requirements in this Chapter
				may be extended by written agreement between the employee and the Human
				Resources Office in cases where additional time is needed in order to conduct
				the review process. Retroactive pay adjustments may be made under Section 02.03
