Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

On June 20, 2017, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Master Position Allocation Table for the FY 2017-2018 Budget, Resolution No. 17-081.                     

 

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 Sheriff’s Office, Human Resources conducted a classification study of the Program Specialist II position assigned to the Office of Emergency Services.  In consultation with the Office of Emergency Services Coordinator, and through review of similar organizational structures applied by comparable agencies, it was determined that the duties of this position are unique and perhaps more complex than the more broadly applied Program Specialist II classification.  The nature of this position requires the incumbent to draw upon and utilize a high level of judgment specific to the field of emergency services.  The work performed requires understanding and proficiency in those programs, rules, and regulations (including state and federal regulations) which are applied within the Mendocino County Office of Emergency Services.  As a result, HR developed the new classification of Emergency Services Specialist, which meets the requirements of the intended role.

 

The adoption of the new classification was approved by the Civil Service Commission on September 20, 2017.  This position is currently vacant, therefore, reclassification of an affected incumbent is not necessary.  Human Resources has fulfilled its meet and confer obligations with the affected bargaining unit.  The annual recurring cost reflected in the Fiscal Impact section of this summary includes cost of benefits as well as the 3% salary increase negotiated to begin the first full pay period in July, 2018.  Any costs associated will be absorbed within the department’s existing budget allocation. 

 

Alternative Action/Motion:

Direct staff to study alternatives.
