DISCUSSION:
HCCF has a Senior Legal Office Assistant position responsible for supporting the HCCF Administrative staff. The current employee is retiring effective June 12, 2021. Koff & Associates has evaluated this position as part of the county classification study. The firm is recommending that the position be reclassified as an Administrative Secretary and HCCF agrees with this recommendation. HCCF would like to make this reclassification prior to hiring a replacement. Both of these positions are in the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) bargaining unit.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Annual salary and benefits for a 1.0 FTE Senior Legal Office Assistant, step 1A is $65,221.76. Annual salary and benefit expenses for a 1.0 Administrative Secretary, step 1A is $63,219.09. This is an estimated salary savings of $2,002.67 annually for the General Fund. This position modification has been included in the fiscal year 2021-22 Proposed Budget.
