DISCUSSION:

There is no need to retain 37.5-hour classifications in the county classification system as employees may request voluntary reduced FTEs, the Human Resources department’s goal is to phase out 37.5-hour classifications.

 

The Human Resources department is seeking approval to abolish the 37.5-hour classification, Secretary (37.5) (class 0165, salary range 341) from the classification system. Additionally, as there is one incumbent currently in the .54 FTE 37.5-hour Secretary classification, the Human Resources department recommends allocating .5 FTE 40-hour Secretary and transferring the incumbent out of the 37.5-hour class into the .5 FTE Secretary position.

Narrative Explanation of Financial Impact:

There will be a $259 increase in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 budget by allocating 0.5 FTE Secretary in UC Cooperative Extension (UCCE), budget unit 632. There are sufficient salary savings to support the increased cost in FY 2024-25 due to staffing transitions and reduced hours for position. The salary and benefit costs associated with the change in position allocation will be included in the proposed FY 2024-25 budget.
