lists for any layoffs that occur in the County. This involves requesting
seniority lists (verifying for correctness), verifying departments layoff
plan is current, using layoff rules and regulations to create layoff and

regarding layoff and seniority. Also process layoff personnel actions
ensuring that displaced employees are placed at the proper step.
For the last 6 months, I have been responsible for Payroll for the Personnel
Department. This involves timekeeping (verification of sick leave, vaca-
tion, comp time, overtime, personal holiday, and management leave balances

ferentials are paid or terminated as appropriate. This is performed
currently due to an employee on leave of absence. I will assume back up
responsibility and program direction in this area upon the return of that
employee.
Responsible for all employee record reports that are computer generated.
They must be checked for accuracy each month. If there are problems, deter-
mine what they are, reason and possible solution. Programming is then con-
tacted to work out specifics and correct the errors. This also applies to
any problems that occur with the employee records and certification modules
of the computer, although these are dealt with on a daily basis. The daily
Tog is also checked for rejects, keypunch errors, or accepted transactions.
Any problems are dealt with in a similiar manner.
Responsibility for creating new codes for the records division use if new
policy is implemented. Fiche needs to be checked to be sure there is not a
current code already in use. Careful consideration needs to be paid to the
table the code will be placed on and the proper code sheet to use to
accomplish the transaction.
Create new salary schedules when craft unions which cover temporary
employees receive a pay raise (carpenters, electricians, etc.) . Current
salary schedules are checked and after determining whether an existing pay
level may be used or not, a new one may be created. Also, certain nego-
tiated benefits are used to figure into base pay and others are not allowed.
Set pay amount in class file and advise Payroll of proper pay amount.
Responsibility for initiating monthly transaction report which involves all
personnel transactions processed in our unit in a given month. I am in the
process of switching over to a computer report. As soon as I can determine
the reports are accurate, the manual reports will be discontinued.

and deep class resolutions for the guidance of the work unit.
On occasion, provide back up coverage for Employee Relations secretary.
