Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On June 20, 2017, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Master Position Allocation Table for 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.
A classification study was recently conducted on the Social Worker and Social Worker Supervisor series. As a result of the study, it was determined that some of the classifications warranted amending, while new classifications were also developed to adequately reflect the experience, education, and licensure desired in Mendocino County.
The Social Worker I, II, III and IV classification have been amended and include salary grade adjustments. The Social Worker IV classification now includes four levels based on education, experience, and licensure, defined as “IV-A,” “IV-B,” “IV-C,” and “IV-D.”
Similarly, the Social Worker Supervisor I and II classifications have been amended and include salary grade adjustments. The revised Social Worker Supervisor II classification now includes three levels based on education, experience, and licensure, defined as “II-A”, “II-B,” and “II-C.”
The recommended changes described above result in the addition of new classification levels, proposed salary grade adjustments, title changes, and one (1) reclassification. The addition of new levels within the Social Worker IV classification will result in the elimination of the Social Worker V and Social Worker Clinician classifications which are no longer necessary.
The Civil Service Commission approved the establishment/modification of these classifications on September 20, 2017, and the reclassification of the affected incumbent to Social Worker IV-B on October 26, 2017. Any costs associated will be absorbed with the department’s existing budget allocation. HR has conducted the necessary communications with the appropriate bargaining unit.
