Lee County Classification and Pay Study Proposal Page 2 of 10 B. Meet with management before commencement of the position classification and pay study to discuss the following issues: expectations of the study, confirmation of labor market comparisons, the understanding of the classifications and pay process, and implementation principles. C. Facilitate an orientation session with Department Heads, Supervisors and employees for the purpose of explaining the study and to distribute and explain the position description questionnaire. The Councils will provide the design and format of questionnaires which are to be filled out by every employee. The questionnaires provide the basic information necessary to address the classification criteria. D. Interview each employee who wishes to be interviewed; however, the Councils reserve the right to conduct group interviews with employees in the same job classification. The interviews provide an opportunity to see the employee's work environment, to ask the employee additional questions, to allow the employee to add information that may have been left off the questionnaire, and to obtain a "personal feel" for the position. The Councils will identify specific employees who may be interviewed regarding their specific scope of duties, responsibilities and authorities. E. Collect salary data from public employers in the labor market with whom the County competes. The County will have input as to whom data is collected from and generally what weight data is given. F. Assign each classification to a salary grade based on an assessment of the classification, market data collected, and internal relationships. G. Assign each employee to a position and classification. Implementation costs for any recommended changes will be calculated. A printout will be provided to management which will include name, current title, proposed title, current grade, current salary, FLSA status, proposed grade, proposed salary, dollar increase on an annual basis, and percent increase. These costs will be summarized by department based on the way the information is provided by the County. The County will need to provide guidance as to how implementation will be administered. H. Meet with County Manager and Human Resources Director prior to finalizing the recommendations to discuss preliminary findings and receive input. I. Present to management, and/or Board of Commissioners as necessary, a summary of the study and recommendations. J. Deliver to the County a final compilation of the study that will contain the assignment of classifications to grades, schedule of changes, and allocation list.
