SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF CLASSIFICATION REVISIONS AND SALARY REALLOCATION FOR ACCOUNTING TECHNICIAN

DATE: July 20, 2016

TO: Members of the Personnel Commission

FROM: Carol Long, Director of Classified Personnel BY: Amy Gurjian, Classification & Compensation Manager BACKGROUND Attached for your approval are class description revisions and salary reallocation for Accounting Technician. This review was part of the Accounting Series study, which was initiated as a result of a request for working out of class into the Accounting Technician classification. A study was necessary to determine the level of responsibility and the nature of duties assigned to the Accounting Specialist I/II and Accounting Technician classifications, as well as clarify distinguishing characteristics. In addition, Commission staff initiated a salary study to compare the current salary range for this classification with similar jobs in other agencies. The Accounting Specialist classification revisions and salary reallocation were approved at the last Commission meeting on June 15, 2016. This classification was created in 1980 and last revised as a result of the Hay study in 2006. There is currently one position in Auxiliary Services/Bookstore; however, the District has requested to broaden the scope of duties to utilize this classification in Fiscal Services as well. The proposed changes will not adversely affect the current status of any Accounting Technician positions. METHODOLOGY All Accounting Technician and Accounting Specialist I/II incumbents and CSEA were invited to participate in a class study orientation on March 24, 2015, to discuss the purpose of the study, methodology, timelines, possible outcomes and implications, and frequently asked questions. Incumbents were requested to complete a Position Description Questionnaire (PDQ) and supervisors had an opportunity to review the PDQs and provide comments. All completed PDQs were received by May 14, 2015. Focus groups were held at respective departments to discuss PDQ follow up questions, and review duties and responsibilities. In addition, some incumbents and supervisors provided work samples for review. During the course of the study, Personnel Commission staff met with several managers and supervisors overseeing current and anticipated Accounting Technician positions, in both Fiscal Services and Auxiliary Services, including now retired Director of Auxiliary Services, George Prather, Interim Director, David Dever, Dean of Educational Enterprise, Mitch Heskell, Chief Director of Business Services, Chris Bonvenuto, Accounts Payable Supervisor, Cristina Hamblet, and Controller, Carla Spalding. Due to changes in leadership in Auxiliary Services, the study was placed on hold for several months until new leadership was selected.

Santa Monica College Personnel Commission AGENDA of Regular Meeting, July 20, 2016

Page 18 of 57

In addition, supervisors were requested to complete duty analysis worksheets by rating the frequency and criticality of each duty in the current class description. Revisions were made to the job scope, supervision received, and minimum qualifications. In addition, duties were added and modified to more accurately reflect responsibilities assigned to this classification in order of importance. Distinguishing characteristics were added to clarify related roles within the occupational series, and minor changes were made to other sections in the class description. An external market study and analysis was conducted of public agencies with positions that have comparable duties and responsibilities. Salary data was gathered based on the comparison of positions with the level of duties and responsibilities most similar to the subject classification and departmental structures. Classification revisions were reviewed with the incumbent, CSEA, Fiscal and Auxiliary management, and executive administrators in both Human Resources and Business Services. RESULTS Based on the data gathered, moderate revisions to the class description are being proposed, to include a more accurate depiction of the scope, level of complexity and distinguishing characteristics required to perform the duties assigned. After a review of the work performed by incumbents in the Accounting Technician and Accounting Specialist classifications, it was apparent that proper internal controls and oversight of work is critical in performing assigned work. Moreover, a broader classification to encompass a variety of advanced journey-level clerical and technical accounting work was necessary to reflect complexity of work in both Fiscal and Auxiliary Services; classification revisions were proposed to reflect functional responsibilities rather than responsibilities limited to specific accounts. After a comprehensive survey of comparable agencies, only a few benchmark positions were found to be somewhat comparable to the scope of work and structure of departments. These positions were selected for review based on their lead responsibilities and the scope of work performed, i.e., providing advanced journey-level clerical and technical accounting support in functions including accounts payable, accounts receivable, revolving cash funds, financial aid payments and/or reimbursements at a community college.

The current salary range for Accounting Technician is $4,067 to $4,943 per month (Classified Employee Salary Schedule, Range 30). In this survey, 75% of the cases presented were above the current salary range for this classification. SALARY ALLOCATION It is recommended that the salary for Accounting Technician be reallocated from Range 30 of the Classified Employee Salary Schedule ($4,067 to $4,943 per month) to Range 34 ($4,484 to $5,450 per month). This range places this classification at the 75th percentile as compared to the dataset provided above, resulting in a 10% pay increase. Salary reallocation was recommended considering external market data and internal alignment. The goal was to recommend a competitive salary to attract and retain qualified candidates. Moreover, when considering salary compression levels between Accounting Specialist, Accounting Technician and Accountant, this adjustment is warranted. The salary proposal for this classification has been reviewed with CSEA, Fiscal and Auxiliary management, and executive administrators in both Human Resources and Business Services.

SUBJECT: NEW CLASS DESCRIPTION & SALARY ALLOCATION FOR BUDGET TECHNICIAN

DATE: July 20, 2016

TO: Members of the Personnel Commission

FROM: Carol Long, Director of Classified Personnel

BY: John Linke, Supervising Personnel Analyst Olga Vasquez, Personnel Technician

BACKGROUND Attached for your approval is a new classification description and salary allocation for Budget Technician. The Budget and Reconciliation unit of the Fiscal Services department is responsible for developing and maintaining a total budget of $583 million. Although much of the technical financial analysis is performed by an Accounting Manager, there is a substantial workload inherent in capturing, organizing, and updating essential financial information. The Fiscal Services department is requesting that a new classification be created, whose primary function will be to provide technical-clerical support to professional-level staff by compiling, organizing, maintaining, and analyzing financial information to support budget preparation and administration. In addition, positions in this classification will serve as the initial point of contact for departments that have budget-related questions. The Budget Technician will report to the Accounting Manager, who in turn reports to the Chief Director of Business Services.

Santa Monica College Personnel Commission AGENDA of Regular Meeting, July 20, 2016

Page 25 of 57

METHODOLOGY Personnel Commission staff met with Chris Bonvenuto, Chief Director of Business Services, and Veronica Diaz, Accounting Manager, to discuss the new classification. The purpose of this meeting was to define and clarify the parameters of this proposed classification, and to make an initial recommendation as to whether proposed job duties fit into an existing classification, or if further study was needed to determine if a formal recommendation for a new classification was warranted. Following discussion and a review of similar job classifications from other agencies, a list of job duties was finalized, along with a list of knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA’s). Reporting relationships were defined, and recommendations for minimum requirements were discussed and compared with other classifications within this job family. Once the duties were finalized, the class description was created by Personnel Commission staff and then reviewed by Chris Bonvenuto and Veronica Diaz, and CSEA. An external salary study was conducted to evaluate salary ranges of classifications within other public agencies which were required to perform similar duties at a similar level. Internal comparisons were also reviewed in order to ensure that there was proper alignment within the occupational series, and duties were adequately distinguished from other related classifications. Personnel Commission staff will conduct further meetings with department management prior to opening recruitment, in order to gather and analyze documentation for developing an examination plan and creating test content. RESULTS Key factors in determining that a new classification should be established involved the scope of responsibilities, knowledge required for the position, level of complexity, and consequence of error. The individual selected for this position will: • Create, organize, and maintain various data information systems so that information is

current, accurate, and accessible.

• Assist in the coordination and preparation of the District’s annual and quarterly budget by entering data into Excel, performing research on revenues and expenditures, and compiling and distributing budget requests.

• Gather and summarize budget augmentation requests submitted by departments for approval by Senior Staff, and assist in tracking them.

• Distribute budget reports, monitor budgets, and answer budget-related questions from departments.

• Assist in regular budget reviews by compiling and analyzing accounting and financial data, preparing budget to actual variances, and current year to prior year variances.

Positions in this class will exercise independent judgment, and apply knowledge of applicable governmental accounting principles, practices, policies, and terminology, in the performance of entry-level technical and complex clerical responsibilities. Their work product has implications at the departmental and organizational levels, as the completeness and accuracy of financial figures is essential for all subsequent analyses and fiscal recommendations. After a comprehensive survey of comparable agencies, only a small number of benchmark classifications were found, due to the fact that few organizations utilize classifications whose scope focuses on supporting budget development and administration. Rather, a number of organizations that were surveyed employ classifications that focus on accounting, or both accounting and budgeting functions. Benchmark positions from four agencies in California were found to be somewhat comparable to this role. These positions were selected for review based on the scope of work directly related to providing advanced journey-level clerical and technical budgeting activities including development, administration, preparation, and compiling budget reports.

TO: Members of the Personnel Commission

FROM: Carol Long, Director of Classified Personnel

BACKGROUND Attached for your approval is a revised classification description for Athletic Trainer. A recruitment is being requested to fill one current vacancy. The Director of Athletics (Interim) has requested a review of the classification description prior to opening the position for recruitment. METHODOLOGY Personnel Commission staff met with Reggie Ellis, Interim Director of Athletics, to review the current classification, in order to determine if the duties, minimum qualifications, and knowledge, skills, and abilities listed still accurately reflected the expectations of the job.

RESULTS This class description was initially created in July 1980. Our records indicate that this class description has been revised only once, at the time of the Hay Study. Further revisions are now recommended to job duties; knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA’s); minimum requirements, and physical requirements. The job duties and KSA’s needed updating in order to accurately reflect the role of the Athletic Trainer as the primary coordinator of the program for prevention and care of injuries to student athletes. Revisions reflect the type and level of duties which are presently performed by the current and most recent incumbents of this classification. Possession of Basic First Aid and CPR certification was not previously listed as a requirement on the class description. However, current First Aid and CPR certification are requirements for maintenance of the Athletic Trainer certification. The classified salary for Athletic Trainer is range 41 which is $5321 to $6467 per month. These changes were not found to be sufficient to alter the salary allocation. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission approve the attached revisions for the classification description for Athletic Trainer.

SUBJECT: REVISIONS TO CLASS DESCRIPTION: WAREHOUSE AND MAIL SERVICES SUPERVISOR

DATE: July 20, 2016

TO: Members of the Personnel Commission

FROM: Carol Long, Director of Classified Personnel

BACKGROUND Attached for your approval is a revised classification description for Warehouse and Mail Services Supervisor. Recruitment is being requested to fill one current vacancy. The Director of Purchasing has requested a review of the classification description prior to opening the position for recruitment. METHODOLOGY Personnel Commission staff met Cynthia Moore, Director of Purchasing, to review the current classification description, in order to determine if the duties, minimum qualifications, and knowledge, skills, and abilities listed still accurately reflected the expectations of the job.

RESULTS Revisions are recommended to broaden minimum requirements of the job. We are removing the requirement of one year of supervisory or coordination experience. In addition, we are recommending updates to both the duties and related knowledge, skills, and abilities. Some of these updates are reflective of the addition of an Asset Manager to the Purchasing Department. A portion of the duties now covered under the Asset Manager classification were previously handled by the Warehouse and Mail Services Supervisor. Minor revisions are recommended to job duties; and knowledge, skills, and abilities; primarily to clarify duties; ensure related knowledge, skills, and abilities were included, and update terminology. The salary range for this position is M7 ($5108 to $6209 per month). These changes were not found to be sufficient to alter the salary allocation.

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission approve the attached revisions for the classification description for Warehouse and Mail Services Supervisor.
