Position Reclassification
When the duties of a position change significantly over time, reclassification may be necessary. Here’s what’s required for a reclassification to a higher title:
A Special Pay Increase may be requested during this transitional period.
The reclassification request is initiated by the supervisor and includes a revised position description reflecting the new duties. Refer to “Reclassifying a Position” for instructions on how the request is submitted through PeopleSoft’s Position Management. An updated organizational chart must be submitted by email. Classification & Compensation will review and evaluate the changes. If a pay change is requested, the salary increase given can be anywhere within the pay range for the new classification, subject to department funding and the area’s Vice President’s policies. Approved reclassifications take effect at the beginning of the following pay period after approval by Classification and Compensation.
Appointments Without Recruitment
Appointing an employee to the Director level or above without recruitment and when reclassification criteria aren’t met requires approval from the Vice President for Human Resource Services.
