RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21653 to reallocate the salary of the classification of Director, Inpatient Nursing Operations (VWDF)(represented) from salary plan and grade level ZL5-2225 ($10,372 - $10,891) to salary plan and grade level ZL5-2126 ($9,404-$11,430) in the Health Services Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action has an annual cost of approximately $9,516.78, with pension cost of $2,298.27. The total cost is 100% funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to reallocate the salary of the classification of Director, Inpatient Nursing Operations in order to achieve compensation parity with the classification of Director of Ambulatory Care Nursing Services. The two classifications have comparable duties and responsibilities in planning, organizing and managing nursing services program through subordinate supervisors. The Director, Inpatient Nursing Operations has overall responsibility for the hospital nursing management focused on budgetary oversight, staffing and scheduling processes, and oversight of care delivery processes in an acute care 24/7 operation at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center while the Director of Ambulatory Care Nursing Services oversees the nursing-service delivery of the eight (8) ambulatory care health centers throughout the County. The requested 5% salary increase will align the two classifications.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the Director, Inpatient Nursing Operations will not be appropriately compensated.
