Common use of Position Audits Clause in Contracts

Position Audits. Each employee shall be provided, upon request, with a copy of his/her position description. New employees shall be provided a copy of their position descriptions. Copies shall also be provided when the position descriptions are changed. If an employee believes that he/she has been assigned duties not within his/her current classification, the employee may file a request for a position audit in writing with the Director of Human Resources, or person holding a similar position, or his/her designee. The request shall state the duties performed by the higher classification that contains those duties, and how those duties differ from the duties normally assigned to the employee’s current classification. An employee may request only one (1) position audit in any twelve (12) month period unless the employee provides documentation at the time of the request, demonstrating that the duties of his/her position have been substantially changed since the date of the last request for a position audit. The Director of Human Resources, or person holding a similar position, or his/her designee, shall investigate and issue a decision within thirty (30) calendar days. If the Director of Human Resources, or person holding a similar position, or his/her designee, determines that the grievant is performing duties not contained within his/her classification, the Director of Human Resources, or person holding a similar position, or his/her designee, shall direct the employee’s supervisor to immediately discontinue the duties. No meeting shall be held. If the duties are determined to be those contained in a classification with a lower pay range than that of the employee’s current classification, no monetary award will be issued. If the duties are determined to be those contained in a classification with a higher pay range than that of the employee’s current classification, the Director of Human Resources, or person holding a similar position, or his/her designee, shall issue an award of monetary relief, provided that the employee has performed the duties for a period of four (4) or more working days. The amount of the monetary award shall be the difference between the grievant’s base rate of pay, and the base rate of pay (at the applicable step) of the higher classification. In no event shall the monetary award be retroactive to a date earlier than four (4) calendar days prior to the date of the request for a position audit.
