• Part 1: Employees

Text

(a)
The director shall maintain the classification plan so that it will reflect the duties performed by each employee in the classified service and the class to which each position is allocated. The director shall:
(1)
Recommend to the board the establishment of new position classes and the deletion or revision of existing classes.
(2)
Review the duties and responsibilities of each new position established, and with the approval of the board, allocate the position to the appropriate position class. The department head shall submit to the director, in writing, a comprehensive job description describing in detail the duties of each new position established.
(3)
Make periodic studies of positions to determine changes in duties and responsibilities and based on findings recommend reallocation or reclassification of positions. Classification studies may be made at the request of the employee, department head, or on the initiative of the director. Changes in duty assignments must be more than temporary in nature and the incumbent must be performing the duties for a sufficient duration to warrant investigation.
(4)
Direct the grading and classifying of all positions in the classified service at least once every five years.
(b)
When a position is reallocated to a higher position class, a lower position class, or another position class at the same level, the method of filling the position shall be determined under this part regarding transfers, demotions, or promotions as may be appropriate.
