RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22058 to reclassify one (1) Pharmacist I (VYWA) (represented) position number 8588 and its incumbent at salary plan and grade level TC51998 ($10,043 - $11,626) to Pharmacist II (VYTA) (represented) at salary plan grade and level TC5 1964 ($9,711 - $12,394) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action has an annual cost of approximately $13,537 including $3,269 in estimated pension costs already included. The cost will be 100% offset within the Department's budgeted General Fund allocation.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to reclassify Pharmacist I position and its incumbent assigned to the Martinez Detention Facility to Pharmacist II. The Department wants to ensure that the services being provided by the Detention Facility has the appropriate compensation level as the duties and responsibilities, and the work performed is at the Pharmacist II level. This position has been designated as the primary point of contact for the Detention Facility Pharmacy which oversees medication delivery and distribution for West County, Marsh Creek, Byron, Juvenile Hall and Martinez Detention facilities.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the incumbent will not be compensated appropriately in the performance of the higher level duties. The Detention facility will not have an employee performing the required duties.
