Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On June 20, 2023, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Master Position Allocation Table for the FY 2023-2024 Budget, Resolution Number 23-109.
Summary of Request:
The Human Resources Department is charged, as part of the overall maintenance of the classification and compensation plan, to evaluate current classifications, create new classifications (including appropriate salary levels), reclassify positions, examine requests for salary grade adjustments, analyze allocations, and make recommendations for additions, modifications, and corrections.
At the request of the Social Services Department, a classification study on the Social Worker Assistant I, II and Vocational Assistant was conducted by CPS HR with whom the County contracts. Updating the classification specifications to more clearly describe the levels, duties, and scope related to the needs of the business and programs as they add or change while retaining employees, and/or effectively recruit to fill vacancies, was approved Civil Service Commission at its meeting on June 21, 2023.
Following the salary study, it has been determined Mendocino County is behind benchmark agencies, for the classifications of Social Worker Assistant I, II and Vocational Assistant. Human Resources recommends the Board adopt the recommended increases, as it will better align the County with market, and attract candidates.
The impact shown below for this fiscal year reflects the approximate increase to Budget Unit 5010 at Step 5 and includes the cost of benefits. The annual recurring cost shown below is calculated at Step 5 including the cost of benefits.
