§ 86-77. Class specifications.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    The human resources director shall maintain a master set of all approved class specifications, which shall constitute the official position classification plan. The official set shall contain all amendments to the original plan. The class specifications shall indicate the date of adoption or the last revision of the specification for such class.

    (b)

    The class specification shall state the official class title, the characteristic duties and responsibilities which distinguish a given class from other classes, examples of typical duties, minimum requirements and knowledge, and skills and abilities required to adequately perform in positions in the class.

    (c)

    The specification shall be descriptive and explanatory but not restrictive or all-inclusive; that is, the class specification shall describe the more typical types of work which may be allocated to a given class but shall not be construed to restrict the assignment of other duties related to the class, nor shall it be construed as descriptive of what the duties and responsibilities of any particular position or individual incumbent shall be.

    (d)

    Minimum requirements are statements of the minimum background as to education, training, experience and other qualifications which will be required in all cases as evidence of a person's ability to perform the work properly and therefore as prerequisites to acceptance for examination or noncompetitive appointment.

    (e)

    Class specifications in the human resources division shall be open for inspection by employees or the public under reasonable conditions during business hours.
