Mr. Raymond Ledford, Chairman of the Personnel Committee, appeared before the Board and presented the committees recommendations for changes in the classification and pay plan, as follows: 1. Definition of "Professional" Two Criteria— a. Job description calls for college degree. b. Nature of work is not routine--e. g. supervision, planning, decision making, etc. 2. Include Agriculture Extension Agents, Home Extension Agent, and Head Librarian in list of Professionals. 3. Recommend every effort to be made to bring clerical and non- professional classes up to at least one grade below standard by next fiscal year in order to avoid recruiting problems. 4. Library Assistant H-- A supplementary job description has been sent to State Personnel to get their opinion as to whether this job description needs rewriting, or whether the pay grade needs to be raised, or both. 5. Agricultural Extension-- They are asking to be left out of the county plan. We feel the salary grades are perhaps too low, but have nothing concrete on which to recommend changes. If this Agency remains in the plan, we will write State Personnel and ask how they arrived at their decisions. We would also contact State Extension Staff for information that would be needed in re- evaluating these positions. 6. Bookkeeper -Secretary- -Recommend that the provision requiring three years experience be deleted from this job description. Commissioner Wicker moved that the classification and pay plan be amended in accordance with Personnel Committee recommendations numbered 1, 2 and 6.
