Position classification is the formal assignment of a job title, salary grade, and job description that is developed based on the requirements of the position. The components of a position classification include scope of duties and responsibilities, skills and abilities, educational criteria, length of experience, and market pay information. After all documents and approval signatures are obtained, the classification analysis can take from 7 - 10 business days, pending receipt of relative resource information. Packets received without the appropriate approval signatures will be returned.
New Position Classification
In order to begin the recruitment and classification process for new positions, submit budget approval documentation, Job Analysis Questionnaire, current division/department Organizational Chart, and complete the online Position Vacancy Justification Request. After the position has been classified, the Employment division will work with the department supervisor on the recruitment process for the vacancy. The new position classification packet includes:
Reclassification
A position reclassification occurs when a position has changed such that it no longer is appropriately placed in the wage and salary structure. As a standard, at least 40% of the job should have changed to warrant a re-evaluation. Reclassification is not intended to recognize individual achievement or an increase in volume of work.
To be considered for reclassification, submit a Position Reclassification Request form, Reclassification Job Analysis Questionnaire, and current division/department Organizational Chart. The completed packet must be submitted to the Office of Human Resources between January 1 through March 31 of the current year to be considered for the subsequent fiscal year. Late submissions will not be considered until the next consecutive fiscal year.
All reclassification requests will be evaluated and the appropriate Vice President and/or Provost will be issued a written analysis to review. Requests for reclassification and the final recommendation will be presented to the President or designee for final review and approval. Employees and supervisors will be notified in writing of the final Presidential approval/denial on or before July 1. Approved reclassification requests will be effective July 1. The reclassification packet includes:
