To: Larry Fugazi, Supervising Personnel Analyst
From: S. D. Hoffman, ASO
Subject: Attached Classification Questionnaire -
Investigator Aide
Attached is a classification questionnaire to initiate a
reclassification of our Public Defender Investigator Aide
position. As we have discussed, we believe some. type of
reclassification is warranted for the following reasons:
1 . Our employee, Pam Clifford, Employee No. 35533 ,
has been in this position for nearly 9 years, yet her
salary is less than a clerk with 1 year of experience.
2 . This job has become more difficult due to our
department' s continuing caseload increase. We are
asking Pam Clifford to do more without any help. This
requires her to set priorities and to carefully
schedule her daily activities.
3 . While Pam Clifford' s job responsibilities have not
changed, her level of supervision and support has.
When Pam started with our office, she required
extensive supervision and assistance. As she gained
experience over the years, she became capable of
independently handling her responsibilities. She has
also redesigned our actual subpoena form and
implemented a procedure for mailing certain subpoenas,
while still maintaining our requirement for proof the
subpoena has been served.
Although job responsibilities have not really changed, the
independence with which the employee handles these
responsibilities has changed. We are recommending establishing
the classification of Senior Public Defender Investigator Aide.
The distinction between this new class and our existing class
would solely relate to the level of supervision required and the
independence with which the employee handles required
responsibilities.
