§ 43-7. Reclassification.

A. 

The duties of any position may be reviewed by an employing agency upon request of the employee, on its own initiative or on the initiative of the Personnel Board. If it appears to the employing agency that such position belongs in a different job classification because of changes in the nature of duties and/or responsibilities, the employing agency may recommend reclassification and shall submit a revised job description to the Personnel Board, which shall then review the facts and approve or deny the proposed reclassification. If approved, the employing agency shall submit a reclassification funding request for approval by the Finance Committee. A reclassified employee shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of § 43-6.

B. 

Where, in the judgment of the Personnel Board and the employing agency, unfairness would otherwise result, a Town employee temporarily assigned to work in a higher classification for at least 1 week shall be paid the minimum rate for that classification for as long as he/she does such work, provided that he/she is paid at a rate at least one step higher than his present rate.

C. 

Any employee who is promoted to a higher job classification will receive at least the equivalent of one periodic step increase under the previously assigned classification at the time of promotion.
