RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22517 to reassign one (1) Eligibility Worker Supervisor I (XHHA) (represented), position No. 14495, from Department 0504 (Workforce Services Bureau) Org 5452, to Department 0503 (Aging and Adult Services Bureau) Org 5311 in the Employment and Human Services Department, effective September 1, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This position will be moved to Aging and Adult Services (General Assistance (GA)/Medi-Cal program) from Workforce Services (CalWORKS). This new GA/CalFresh/Medi-Cal/Cash Assistance Program for Immigrants (CAPI) Eligibility Worker Supervisor I position will be funded with an average of 12% open-ended federal CalFresh revenue, 34% state capped CalFresh allocation revenue, 24% state capped Medi-Cal allocation revenue, and 30% County general funds.

BACKGROUND:

Eligibility Supervisor for the East County unit of GA oversees a unit of 11 employees, which include the classifications of Eligibility Work III's, Social Services Program Assistant, and Clerk Experienced Level. The unit staff process General Assistance applications, CalFresh applications and Medi-Cal. The recently enacted legislation making CalFresh available to SSI clients, also requires strong support and supervision. The Eligibility Work Supervisor I is critical for the success of the unit.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the County will not be able to maximize efficiency in administering the Aging and Adult Services Bureau, GA/Medi-Cal program.
