TENTATIVE AGREEMENT

CLASSIFICATION REVIEW/SALARY STUDY

Salary Schedules

You previously received your final draft job description, including any reclassification or title change, from jobstudy@santarosa.edu. Your finalized job descriptions that include the grade are still being standardized and will be sent as soon as possible. If you are unsure of your final classification or have questions related to your final draft job description, please email jobstudy@santarosa.edu.

Grade/Step Changes

Human Resources will send a separate notification to those who have received a grade and/or step change in January after the results have been fully ratified and approved by the Board.

A grade and/or step change will not result in a salary decrease. Per Article 7, section 7.7.1, “Any unit member in the bargaining unit receiving a reclassification or promotion under the provisions of this Agreement shall be moved to the appropriate grade and step of the new class to ensure not less than a 5% salary increase as a result of that reclassification or promotion, except that the unit member may be placed on the last step of the appropriate grade if that is the maximum allowable for that class.”

Off-Schedule Reviews

As noted in the tentative agreement summary, off-schedule reviews will resume once the contract has been ratified and approved by the Board. Off-schedule reviews can be initiated by the employee, the supervisor, or the area administrator per the provisions in Article 19, section 19.5.

If you believe that the normal requirements of your position have significantly changed since your job description was finalized meeting one or more of the provisions in Article 19, section 19.5.2, you may submit a request for off-schedule review to the VP of HR (Theresa Richmond) and the Classified Executive Council President, Sandy Sigala, per section 19.5.3.
