Classification Notice No. 1666
To: Agency Heads and Employees
From: Karen Niparko, Executive Director of the Office of Human Resources
Date: December 04, 2020
Subject: Proposed Changes to the Classification and Pay Plan
The proposed change amends the Classification and Pay Plan by creating new pay grades and ranges, creating the new classifications of Management Analyst Staff Hourly and Claims Adjuster Associate, and changing the titles and pay grades of various classifications.
The Office of Human Resources Classification and Compensation Division conducted a review of all classifications to evaluate whether they meet the overtime exemption requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The Classification and Compensation Division worked with the City Attorney’s Office to identify the above classifications where the duties and responsibilities necessitated a job title and/or exemption category change.
The title changes were specific to replacing the use of “coordinator” in exempt classification titles with other titles, as “coordinator” may imply non-exempt duties and responsibilities. The title changes better align these classifications under the city’s professional career track and preserve the exempt status based on the classification specification.
The City Attorney’s Office determined, based on a review of job specification duties and responsibilities, that the identified entry-level non-exempt “staff” classifications should be changed to FLSA exempt, in order to align with other exempt classifications within the classification series career ladder. These “staff” classifications, while of reduced scope and complexity as compared to the higher-level classifications within the same career ladder series, meet the FLSA’s criteria for the administrative exemption.
Classification determinations were reviewed with affected city departments and agencies to ensure the job specification language is current, represents the duties and responsibilities of their employees, and that the employees are in fact performing said duties and responsibilities.
