II. REPORT - DIRECTOR OF CLASSIFIED PERSONNEL

Director MacDonald reported that she had received several requests from Commissioners asking for information regarding the Workforce and Development Department. Michael Cool is reviewing all the positions in that Department. It may, therefore, be a while before that item is brought back to the Commission.

She noted that there is still a need to determine how the lists will be distributed to employees. This communication is very important for employees to understand because it can have a number of ramifications, depending on the budget. Because there are many 11-month

AGENDA REPORT NO. 4 SUBJECT: RATIFICATION OF WORKING OUT OF CLASS ASSIGNMENT: MICHELLE YU DATE: August 15, 2012 TO: Members of the Personnel Commission FROM: Dori MacDonald, Director of Classified Personnel Carol Long, Supervising Personnel Analyst It is recommended that the Personnel Commission approve the following provisional working out of class assignment at 50%: Name Assignment Length of Assignment Michelle Yu Administrative Assistant II 7/11/12 – 8/10/12

BACKGROUND An Administrative Assistant II working for both the Superintendent/President’s Office and the Community Relations Department has promoted to another assignment. Ms. Yu, an Administrative Clerk, has been assigned additional duties to temporarily cover for some of the Administrative Assistant II responsibilities in preparation for the fall semester. Ms. Yu has accepted another job, and she will be leaving this assignment effective 8/10/12. Until this date, she will continue to cover the Administrative Assistant II responsibilities as described below. Additional duties assigned consist of but are not limited to the following:

1. Scheduling meetings for the Community Relations Department. Recording and editing minutes from these meetings.

2. Maintaining a calendar of campus events and support group activities. 3. Maintaining the department budget from three separate accounts. Preparing payment

requests and maintaining records for all expenses incurred. 4. Drafting communications from Community Relations, including invitations and

announcements. 5. Coordinating and assisting in hosting weekly guest speaker events. Assisting with publicity,

coordinating parking arrangements and other logistics, and ensuring guests receive appropriate payment for services.

6. Updating and maintaining the community support website.

Through August 10, 2012, Ms. Yu will continue reporting to the President’s Office for 50% of her assignment, in the role of an Administrative Clerk. She will report to Judy Neveau, Director of Community Relations, for the remaining 50% of her assignment. While reporting to Community Relations, Ms. Yu will perform duties consistent with her regular Administrative Clerk assignment for approximately 10% of the time, and will perform duties as described above for the remaining 40% of

her time. These duties were reviewed by Personnel Commission staff and compared with those listed on the classifications for Administrative Clerk, Administrative Assistant I, Administrative Assistant II, and Administrative Assistant III. The majority of duties listed were found to be consistent with those described in the Administrative Assistant II class description. Most of the duties listed above were not found at the level specified on either the Administrative Assistant I or Administrative Clerk class descriptions, beyond calendar maintenance and scheduling responsibilities. Ms. Yu meets the minimum qualifications of the Administrative Assistant II. She is temporarily replacing a position on a part-time basis which was previously approved as an Administrative Assistant II. Her working-out-of-class assignment will make up less than 50% of her daily responsibilities. Merit Rule 3.2.10 Working Out of Class (Education Code Section 88010, 88087) 3.2.10

A. CONCEPT OF WORKING OUT OF CLASSIFICATION

1. Each classified employee shall be required to perform the duties of the position approved by the Board of Trustees and classified by the Personnel Commission for the class to which he or she is assigned. Each employee may be required to perform other related duties consistent with the concept of the classification to which his or her position is assigned.

2. Classified employees shall not be required to perform duties and responsibilities

which are not fixed and prescribed for their positions or are not consistent with the concept of the classification of their current position for any period of time which exceeds five (5) working days within a fifteen (15) calendar day period, except as provided by this Rule.

3. Working out of class assignments are designed for temporary situations and shall

not be used to place an employee in a long-term or permanent assignment in a higher or different classification. No employee shall be assigned to work out of class for more than 90 days in one fiscal year or for more than one working out of class assignment in a fiscal year without the approval of the Personnel Commission.

B. PROCEDURE FOR REQUESTING APPROVAL FOR WORKING OUT OF CLASS

3. The Director of Classified Personnel will advise the District Human Resources office of his or her findings and shall present those findings, including the recommended pay differential, to the Personnel Commission for approval.

Agreement between Santa Monica Community College and CSEA, Chapter 36, Article 11 11.7 Work out of Classification 11.7.3 Compensation:

a. In the event that an employee is assigned duties at a higher classification as defined above and those duties make up at least fifty percent (50%) of the employee’s daily assignments, the employee salary shall be adjusted as set forth in Section 11.4.1.

Page 11: PERSONNEL COMMISSION MINUTES€¦ · Santa Monica College Personnel Commission MINUTES of Regular Meeting, August 15, 2012 Page 2 of 21 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION ADDRESSING THE PERSONNEL

Santa Monica College Personnel Commission MINUTES of Regular Meeting, August 15, 2012

Page 11 of 21

b. If those duties make up less than fifty percent (50%) of the employee’s daily

assignment, the District shall pay the employee equal to one half (1/2) of the stipend that would have been paid under sub division a (above)

11.4 Salary on Promotion

11.4.1 When an employee is promoted to a position in a higher salary range, he/she shall receive the next higher dollar amount above his/her present rate of pay, but not less than the minimum of the new salary range. If that amount is less than a one-step (5%) increase, the employee shall be placed at the next higher step over that authorized above.

RECOMMENDATION Ms. Yu has been assigned additional duties at the level of Administrative Assistant II. These duties make up less than fifty percent (50%) of this employee’s daily assignments. Therefore, it is recommended that the Personnel Commission approve the request for working out-of- class for fifty percent (50%) of the stipend which would have been paid under subdivision a of CSEA, Chapter 36, Article 11.7.3. (above), as described in CSEA, Chapter 36, Article 11.7.3.b.

AGENDA REPORT NO. 5 SUBJECT: ALLOCATION OF NEW POSITION TO AN EXISTING CLASSIFICATION: ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT I DATE: August 15, 2012 TO: Members of the Personnel Commission FROM: Dori MacDonald, Director of Classified Personnel Carol Long, Supervising Personnel Analyst It is recommended that the Personnel Commission approve the allocation of the following new permanent position to the Administrative Assistant I classification: Location Hours Effective Date Supplemental Instruction/STEM Grant Program

12 mos, 40 hrs per week 8/8/2012

BACKGROUND A new, permanent, full-time clerical position was approved to provide support to both the Supplemental Instruction (SI) Program and the new Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) grant-funded program. Personnel Commission staff met with Cynthia Lopez, Project Manager overseeing the Supplemental Instruction program to review the duties which would be assigned to this new support staff position, and determine the appropriate classification. A new Director of the STEM Program has recently been hired, but will not be starting the assignment until September 4. However, Ms. Lopez was able to provide substantial information about the duties this new position would be expected to perform within both programs. JUSTIFICATION This new support staff position will perform a variety of secretarial and clerical duties in support of both programs. Neither program is currently utilizing any support services to assist the Project Manager or Director of the STEM Program. Some of the more critical duties assigned to this new position include the following:

1. Resolve routine problems for both staff and students which are related to either program. 2. Assist the managers with scheduling training sessions and staff meetings. Prepare meeting

agendas, copy and distribute training materials, ensure room and equipment setup is completed, and provide on-site support as needed.

3. Distribute surveys, and compile data to pass on to staff members for future analysis. 4. Prepare, update and maintain current program leader and participant lists, schedules, and other

forms each semester. 5. Assist with preparation and distribution of program marketing and advertising materials. 6. Assist with preparing, checking, and submitting payroll time sheets for authorization. 7. Create and maintain email distribution lists for leaders and faculty involved with the programs. 8. Prepare and distribute email communication with program leaders, participants, and task

assistants. 9. Update information on program web pages and Wiki Page. 10. Edit and update program leader forms, documents, and manuals.

Santa Monica College Personnel Commission MINUTES of Regular Meeting, August 15, 2012

Page 13 of 21

These duties and the level of performance expectations are consistent with the concept of the Administrative Assistant I classification. While this position will serve as the sole source of clerical and secretarial support to both programs, most work performed and decisions made are of a routine nature. Assigned work which is less routine is generally submitted to the Project Manager or STEM Program Director for review. Positions in the Administrative Assistant series are distinguished by the following factors:

1) The scope of the supervisor’s administrative and program responsibilities, 2) The knowledge required to effectively perform the job, 3) Minimum experience and/or education necessary to be considered for employment.

This position will be reporting to an Academic Director. The duties of this position are consistent with the concept of the Administrative Assistant I classification. Merit Rule 3.2.7 ALLOCATION OF LIKE POSITIONS TO EXISTING CLASSES 3.2.7

B. All positions which substantially consist of comparable duties, responsibilities, and qualifications shall be allocated to the same class.
