P, Sver TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: MEMORANDUM Mayor and City Council Pat Klaers, City Administrator May 17, 2004 Consider Personnel Committee Recommendations Item 4.6. Typically an employee in a new position will have a wage established for hiring purposes. After one year, a job analysis questionnaire 0AQ) will then be completed. The city waits for one year to have the jAQ completed so that everyone has a clear understanding of the tasks and responsibilities of the position. Environmental Assistant Rebecca Haug has recently completed a jAQ. Rebecca was hired in August 2002 and, at that time, it was indicated to her that her pay grade would be established based on completing a jAQ and establishing a comparable worth ranking in July 2003. If this was not accomplished by that date, then wages would be retroactive (see attached employment letter). This July 2003 goal was not achieved. The jAQ was not completed until later in 2003. Accordingly, retroactive pay now needs to be given to Rebecca Haug per her employment letter. The Personnel Committee's recommendation is that Rebecca be in Pay Grade 1E. This is an exempt position. In 2002 she was paid above what was then pay level A of Grade 1E. In July 2003 she should have been above pay level B of Grade 1E and this upcoming summer she will go to above pay level C of Grade 1E. At this time Rebecca's wage needs to be established and a retro payment needs to be made. Recommendation It is recommended that Rebecca's wage be established immediately at $46,719.02 with an adjustment to $50,030.96 on July 1, 2004. (This July 2004 amount is about at the mid point between pay levels C and D of Grade 1E.) Additionally it is recommended that Rebecca receive retro pay to July 1, 2003, (approximately $2,650) based on her placement in pay grade 1E. S: ~Council~Pat~ 2004\ PersonnelCommltaug. doc
