The Association shall be provided a copy of the class specification for each position and classification covered by this Agreement as requested. The development of class specifications and determining the appropriate pay grade shall be the within the scope of the County. The Association Courthouse President shall receive a copy and have an opportunity to comment on new proposed class specifications and proposed pay grade adjustments for classifications covered by the agreement prior to submitting such recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners. An Employee or Elected Official/Department Head may request that the classification of an Employee’s position be reviewed. Request for Employee position classification reviews will be evaluated between January 1st and January 31st annually. New unclassified, Board of County Commissioners initiated or vacant positions may be accepted for classification review throughout the year upon approval of the Yellowstone County Commissioners. Elected Officials/Department Heads must strive to ensure that the duties and responsibilities of Employees under their supervision are consistent with those contained in the class specification, keeping in mind an accurate classification specification also referred to as a job description, objective is to describe approximately 80% of the primary duties, tasks and accountabilities of the Employee’s job.
Classification/Reclassification. The classifications shall be as listed in Schedule A. The Employer shall prepare classification specifications for each current classification in Schedule A. A copy of each of the specifications, and any changes made thereto from time to time, shall be provided to the Union. If a new classification is established by the Employer or if a substantial change is made to any existing specifications, the rate and classification specifications will be established by the Employer and the Union will be advised. If the Union objects to the new rate in writing within thirty (30) days, the parties will meet to negotiate the rate. If the parties cannot agree on the rate, the rate will be determined by a one-person arbitration board established as provided in Article 9 of this Agreement. If an employee believes that as a result of changes in duties, they no longer substantially fall within the employee's classification, the employee may apply for reclassification to another or a new classification. The application will be considered by the Employer and if the employee is not satisfied with the result, the Union may process the matter of the appropriate classification at Step 3 of the grievance procedure. Should no settlement be reached, the arbitration step may be utilized with a one-person arbitration board. The arbitrator, in such a case, is limited to determining which of the existing classifications is appropriate, or requiring the Employer to establish a new one which is appropriate.
Classification/Reclassification. The Employer shall provide written notice to the Union when it creates a new position. When a new position is created and classified or an existing occupation is reclassified, the parties will negotiate its inclusion or exclusion, hours of work and rate of pay.
