Regarding Criteria on Classification Issues
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
DIRECT the Human Resources Director to meet with the'Internal Operations
Committee to provide information regarding the criteria used in determining
whether filling a vacant "project" position will require testing or be accomplished
by a direct appointment and also what criteria is used in determining whether
filling a vacant "exempt" position will require testing or be accomplished by a

freeze should be granted.
REQUEST the Internal Operations Committee to recommend any changes, if
appropriate, in the criteria used in determining testing requirements for
"project" and "exempt" positions and criteria for hiring during a freeze.
BACKGROUND
Due to the confusion regarding testing requirements for project and exempt
positions, and issues relating to why some positions are exempted from a hiring
freeze and some are not, it is appropriate that the Internal Operations Committee
be provided with information on current practices regarding these issues so that
recommendations, if any, can be presented to the Board of Supervisors for
consideration. Further, it is appropriate for the Internal Operations Committee
to review the current hiring freeze exemption criteria given ongoing fiscal
concerns.
