Common use of Employee requests for higher pay grade Clause in Contracts

Employee requests for higher pay grade. 1. In the event an employee believes that the preponderance of the duties he/she is performing on a permanent basis are more properly the duties of a job description with a pay grade higher than the one to which he/she is assigned, the employee may submit a written request to (a) the President of Chapter 110 or (b) District’s personnel administrator or (c) both the Union and the District to discuss changes in duties or responsibilities level in their position. If the employee contacts the District, the District shall promptly notify the President of Chapter 110. The request shall state the employee’s current job description and pay grade, the job description and pay grade in which the employee believes he/she should be more properly placed, and a description of the kinds of higher-level duties performed and the percentage of time spent doing them. 2. Upon receipt of a request for movement to a higher job description and pay grade, the Superintendent or his/her designee shall conduct an audit of the employee’s duties and undertake any other reasonable investigation pursuant to the employee’s request in order to determine the job description and pay grade in which the employee should be most properly placed. The Union and District shall address the concern at Labor-Management meetings. If, in fact, the employee is more properly classified in a higher pay grade because of actual duties performed, the District may: a. Immediately remove the duties that would place the employee in the higher pay grade; or b. Modify the employee job description according to the provisions set forth in Article 19. I. of this agreement. 3. In the event the employee’s request is approved, the rate of pay shall be on the higher pay grade and as indicated in Section B (2) of this Article. The effective date of the job description and pay grade adjustment and any increase in wage shall be the date the employee’s request was granted, which shall also constitute the employee’s new pay grade and job description seniority date.
