Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Child Support Fund (1380-206)
DISCUSSION:
The fiscal year (FY) 2021-22 budget for Child Support was approved with personnel allocations which included two FTE CSA III positions. These are considered lead worker positions and have the responsibility to provide training to the CSA I/II class as well as leadership over teams.
To build a more robust workforce, provide comprehensive training, and ensure manageable workload sizes, staff recommend allocating an additional one FTE CSA III (Class 0367, Range 375, Position Number 01) and deallocating one vacant FTE CSS II (Class 0342, Range 0367, Position Number 12) in budget unit 1380-206 effective immediately.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The approximate annual salary and benefits associated with the request to deallocate one FTE CSS II (Class 342, Range 0367) at Step E is $88,712. The approximate annual salary and benefits associated with the request to allocate one CSA III (Class 0367, Range 375) at Step E is $87,382.
The overall estimated cost savings of this recommendation will be $1,330 annually. Approval of these changes will not impact the general fund.
