Types of Classification Reviews
Direct Replacement (CATS Action: Update): This is a previously established position for which a department wishes to recruit and where only minor changes have been made to the duties assigned to the position.
New or Restructured Position (CATS Action: New Position): This is a position which has either not previously existed or an existing position which has undergone significant restructuring. Since there is no history to the position it must be established within the classification system.
Reclassification (single position) (CATS Action: Reclassification): Reclassification is appropriate when there have been significant changes to a majority of an individual employee's assigned responsibilities that impact a number of factors (nature or type of work performed, level of responsibility, impact of the position on the unit, department or campus, reporting relationships, scope of duties, complexity of work etc.) In cases where newly assigned duties to the position under review are already part of an existing position, the second position will also need to be updated and submitted for review. Departments need to be aware that employees do have a right to the duties assigned to them and when duties are removed from a position they need to be replaced with duties at a similar level and the second position submitted for review along with the one identified for reclassification.
Reclassification based upon Organizational Change: When a unit undergoes reorganization, the changes may impact the classification of several positions. The review process is similar to that of reclassification of a single position, however, the impacts of change across the organization and the redistribution of duties across a larger group of positions is considered. Departments need to be aware that employees do have a right to the duties assigned to them and when duties are removed from a position they need to be replaced with duties at a similar level. All affected positions should be submitted for review and classification.
MSP Committee: Management and Senior Professional (MSP) positions at MSP IV and above are reviewed by the MSP Committee. A call for positions to be reviewed is sent out quarterly by Human Resources. Positions must be submitted through the applicable Divisional office by the deadline noted in the call letter
