Creation of Merged Job Classification Specifications
body
At the November 15, 2022 City Council meeting, Council approved the Classification and Compensation Study Implementation Plan. This action requires multiple new, merged, and revised job classification specifications to be drafted and approved by the Personnel Commission. At the same meeting, Council also approved deletion of 55 job classifications/titles that are vacant/unused.
At the December 14, 2022 Personnel Commission meeting, the Commission formed two ad hoc committees and appointed members to each committee. The appointed members of the Merged Classification Specification Review Ad Hoc Committee - Vice-Chair Thompson and Commissioner Elford - were tasked with reviewing draft merged classifications specifications, and making recommendations to the full Commission at the January 18, 2023 and March 15, 2023 Personnel Commission meetings.
The merged job classification titles and pay ranges approved by the City Council and ready for review at this time include:
• Water Utility Worker (HBMT), Pay Range 163
• Lead Water Utility Worker (HBMT), Pay Range 178
• Water Utility Crew Leader (HBMT), Pay Range 188
• Water Utility Supervisor (MEO), Pay Range 208
• Water Quality Specialist (HBMT), Pay Range 180
These positions are a merger of at least two existing positions, and will all perform job duties necessary to fulfill the City’s operational goals and objectives.
The Human Resources Department has created the job classifications in collaboration with the department in which the positions are assigned, and the bargaining units representing each position have reviewed the proposed job classifications.
Staff requests the Personnel Commission approve the recommendation in accordance with Personnel Rule 12 regarding amendments to the City’s Classification Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
recommendation
Amend the City’s Classification Plan by approving the proposed merged job classifications of Water Utility Worker, Lead Water Utility Worker, Water Utility Crew Leader, Water Utility Supervisor, and Water Quality Specialist.
