Common use of Reclassification Procedures Clause in Contracts

Reclassification Procedures. 19.2.1 The Reclassification/Reallocation Questionnaire (attached as Appendix D to this Agreement) shall be used to document the request for reclassification. The questionnaire shall ask the employee(s) or CSEA to describe the job duties or requirements which have changed since the job description was last revised and approved by the Board. 19.2.2 The completed questionnaire shall be submitted to the immediate supervisor(s) who shall provide input on the current job duties and requirements, provide an opinion on how the position or classification has changed and make a recommendation as to whether a reclassification or reallocation is in order. The immediate supervisor’s recommendation shall be reviewed by the Superintendent or designee who shall make one or more of the following determinations: (1) whether the position should be reclassified, (2) whether the job description needs updating, (3) whether the employee(s) in question is/are working out of classification, and 4) whether the salary placement should be reallocated to a higher salary range. This decision shall be communicated in writing. 19.2.3 If the Superintendent or designee determines that the job description needs updating or that a reclassification/reallocation is in order, the District and CSEA shall meet and negotiate, separate from contract negotiations, to come to an agreement regarding changes to the job description and the salary placement for the new job description. 19.2.4 All changes to job descriptions or reclassifications/reallocations shall require Board approval. If the reclassification/reallocation affects a whole class of employees, ratification of CSEA membership is required. If a reclassification/reallocation affects individual positions, signature of an authorized representative of CSEA is required. 19.2.5 Reclassifications/reallocations resulting from this procedure shall be effective July 1st of the next fiscal year. 19.2.6 All forms, documents and questionnaires shall be retained by the District.
