– Experience
– Education
Q n A
How can I determine whether a reclassification is warranted ?
Ask yourself the following:
– “Have the duties changed in a meaningful way?”
– “Are the duties different or more of the same?”
– “Has the nature or focus of the job changed ?”
Q n A
– “Has there been a recent reorganization within the work group?”
– “Has there been a restructuring of the job duties?”
– “Are the changes demonstrable and meaningful?”
– “Have all of the job duty changes been implemented, or are more anticipated in the near future?”
Q n A
Is it important to incorporate all of the proposed changes prior to requesting an audit ?
Absolutely. – HR audits capture the duties performed at the time of the audit request.
– Unless management assigns the duties first, there is no way to identify what the new duties are or to verify that they are being performed.
– Management needs to implement all duty changes first.
