Reclassification studies of departments or departmental programs may be
initiated by one of two means:
- Department heads may request Human Resources to review departmental
classifications, subject to the availability of funds; or
- Human Resources may request that classifications within a department be
audited on a department-wide or program-wide basis as a result of either an
apparent classification discrepancy revealed by an individual audit or an
Arizona Universities Personnel System Review.
PROCEDURE
Department heads who desire reclassification studies shall
submit a letter of request to Human Resources. A Compensation Analyst(s) shall
confer with the department head and determine if a study is appropriate. The
department shall submit Staff Position Questionnaires for employees involved in
the study through the appropriate organizational structure (see Procedure,
Request for Position Reclassification, Pol. #304.0).
Human Resources shall audit the positions and submit written recommendations
to the department head regarding the classifications and, if circumstances
warrant, the organizational structure.
