- ` Agenda Section: 8 -3 oums REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Report Number: 91-8 6C STAFF REPORT Report Date: 10-10-9 1 �� Council Action: ❑ Special Order of Business CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE October 14 , 19 91 ❑ Public Hearings at Consent Agenda ❑ Council Business Item Description: Approving the Reclassification of the Position of Accounting Clerk Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; The position of Accounting Clerk was filled over three years ago by an individual who has since moved beyond the requirement and tasks associated with that job classification. Several months ago I was asked to re-evaluate the position. In doing so, it became evident that the tasks, duties and responsibilities did not fairly and accurately represent the position of Accounting Clerk. The duties, tasks and responsibilities currently undertaken by the incumbent were more closely related to those associated with the position of Payroll Clerk. The Finance Director and I agree that the position warrants reclassification and the incumbent's performance is satisfactory to also warrant a reclassification increase. Minnesota's Pay Equity Law is very clear that positions must be reviewed and maintained on a regular basis. The current regulations from the Department of Employee Relations (DOER) mandate a complete position/classification review once every three years. Many positions in the City have not been reviewed since 1987. Because this position so clearly represents an opportunity to upgrade a position justified by clearly delineated duties, it is recommended that the Council consider the following position reclassification and salary adjustment: Old Position Title & Compensation Range Old Position Title & Compensation Range Accounting Clerk Payroll Clerk Current pay: $11.40/hr. Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 $1-976/mo. $10.70 $11.37 $12.04 $12.71 $1338 $23,712,'r. The five step compensation plan for this position is consistent with the previously established plan for other positions in the City. It is recommended that the incumbent start the new position of Payroll Clerk at Step 3. After a 6 month satisfactory performance, the individual will advance to Step 4, after one year the incumbent will advance to step 5. C- a Samantha Orduno, City Ad . istrator RECOMMENDATION; Motion to waive the reading and adopt Resolution No/ %Approving the Position Reclassification of Accounting Clerk to Payroll Clerk and salary adjustment from 11.40/hr. to 12.04/hr effective October 14, 1991
