Each factor requires a decision as to how the job under consideration will be <br />rated using levels that are increasingly complex and of great impact, frequency, or quantity. <br />We look at the job rather than the employee. <br /> <br />▪ Job Evaluation: DDA HR will use the existing system or new system to evaluate all <br />jobs using the information gathered from the PDQs. <br />▪ Job Classification Appeal Process: Once jobs classifications are completed, <br />employees and supervisors will review. If changes are needed, they will complete a <br />Job Classification Appeal Form. <br />▪ DDA will review appeals and work with Project Team and employees to create <br />consistent results. <br />▪ Review Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) Designations: DDA HR will review exempt <br />and non-exempt designations to ensure they are appropriate for classifications and <br />make recommended changes, where appropriate. <br /> <br />Job Description Re-Write <br /> <br />▪ Position Analysis Questionnaire (PAQ)- DDA will work with you to design a PAQ that <br />reflects your needs. We have several versions to customize your needs. <br />▪ We will distribute a position analysis questionnaire (PAQ) to all employees and their <br />supervisors, asking them to outline all the important requirements for and duties of <br />the job. <br />▪ DDA write job descriptions in newly designed and approved job description template. <br />▪ Employees and supervisors will be asked to review the new job descriptions, and we <br />will guide a controlled process for employees to appeal the content of descriptions <br />before they are finalized. <br />▪ Additional job descriptions may be added to provide for internal promotional <br />opportunities, or jobs may be consolidated to make administration easier. <br />▪ Job Description Appeal Process: Once jobs descriptions are completed, employees <br />and supervisors will review. If changes are needed, they will complete a Job <br />Description Appeal form. <br />▪ DDA will review appeals and work with Project Team and employees to create <br />consistent results. <br /> <br />Ongoing Maintenance <br /> <br />This exclusive DDA Human Resources, Inc. program is designed to eliminate the need for <br />large classification and compensation study every 4 to 6 years. Services include everything <br />needed to keep a freshly updated compensation plan perpetually current. We find that over <br />half of larger communities who have completed a compensation study with DDAHR have <br />opted to convert to this management approach. Our ongoing maintenance scope generally <br />includes a three-year commitment and includes the following services: <br /> <br />▪ We review, update and reclassify as necessary 1/3 of job descriptions annually. <br />▪ We annually update a market analysis of wages with benchmark communities and <br />suggest changes to pay plan as necessary to remain in tune with the market. <br /> <br />▪ For any new jobs or changed jobs, we will write and classify the position for
