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.

 

The Probation Assistant classification was first adopted by the Commission in 1999. This classification has not been utilized for several years and the Probation Department has requested the re-establishment of Probation Assistant. Due to the length of time this classification has been dormant, Human Resources has worked closely with the Department to revise the classification specification.  At its March 15, 2023 Civil Service Commission meeting, the Commission approved the specification modification to the Probation Assistant Classification.

 

The Probation Assistant will assist sworn staff in Probation and Juvenile Hall in a non-sworn position, technical duties associated with the monitoring of adult probation, mandatory supervision, post-release community supervision, pre-trial release; youth probation cases; and youth detained at the juvenile detention facility.

 

This Classification will provide an additional level of progression within the Department between the non-sworn and sworn levels of duties. It will increase the efficiencies in time and cost of performing various required duties, such as relieving sworn staff from routine duties and increasing sworn staff time dedicated to more critical duties. We anticipate the increased ability to recruit staff at this level and develop individuals for possible future advancement into a sworn position as they gain valuable related experience as a Probation Assistant.

 

The impact shown below for this fiscal year is calculated at Step 5 during pay period 09-23 (April 16, 2023) and includes the cost of benefits.  The annual recurring cost shown below is calculated at Step 5 including the cost of benefits.

 

The County has fulfilled its obligation with the affected bargaining unit in accordance with Myers-Milias-Brown Act (MMBA).

Do not adopt recommendation and direct staff.
