I hereby certify that this is a true and correct copy of an action taken and entered on the minutes of the Board of Supervisors on the date shown. Attested: June 6,2006 John Sweeten,Clerk of the Board Of Supervisors and County Administrator f By: 0 Deputy Clerk TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS � ;E t _- Contra FROM: LORI GENTLES,Assistant County Administrator- g ,;, s Costa Director of Human Resourcesa DATE: June 6,2006 Sr, our---- County SUBJECT: P300 20029— Health Services Department 23 SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)8 BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Position Adjustment Resolution#20029 to ESTABLISH the classifications of Clinical Laboratory Technician I ALLOCATE salary to QT5-1035;Clinical Laboratory Technician II ALLOCATE Salary to QT5-1084;Clinical Laboratory Technician III ALLOCATE salary to QT5-1134;TRANSITION the attached list of positions into the classification of Clinical Laboratory Technician II; ADD four full-time positions as follows: two(2)Clinical Laboratory Technician I(VJWA) one(1)Clinical Laboratory Technician II(VJVA) one(1)Clinical Laboratory Technician III(VJTA) FISCAL IMPACT: The cost associated with adding four full-time Clinical Laboratory Technician positions are FQHC funded and would result in no net County cost. The actual annual cost, $88,000.00 would be the benefit cost only, estimated at 38%. The salary cost would be offset by reductions in the use of temporary staff and overtime. BACKGROUND: The Health Services Department is requesting to establish and add positions to the Clinical Laboratory Technician series. Incumbents in the classification of Laboratory Technician who are assigned to the hospital laboratory will be transitioned to the new classification of Clinical Laboratory Technician II with no salary change. The Laboratory Technician's assigned to the Public Health laboratory will be transitioned later to a new classification. ® The request to add both positions and additional levels to the Laboratory Technician classification would address the Departments recruitment and retention concerns, allow employees promotional opportunities and assist with the growing workload in the laboratory. yCurrently there are 20 authorized Laboratory Technician positions, including four vacancies. The Department has experienced difficulty in recruiting qualified candidates to meet the ever growing workload in the laboratory. The {-tiy volume of work has steadily increased since 2001. To meet workload needs,the Department is utilizing temporary staff. A recent recruitment produced a minimal number of candidates to fill department vacancies. The Department — also has retention concerns as many of their employees have acquired positions outside of the county that offer both a salary increase and promotional opportunities. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should this request not be granted,the Clinical Laboratory will continue to utilize temporary staff to meet workload needs and loose qualified technicians to outside organizations as retention issues will continue.
