Classification and Compensation Plan

The Classification and Pay Division is responsible for administering the City's classification and compensation plan in accordance with State law and City Charter.  The plan provides a listing of the City's class specifications and its assigned salary range.

Class specifications describe a broad range of duties and responsibilities that are sufficiently similar in terms of work performed and level of responsibility.  Specific requirements for employment (minimum qualification requirements) are also defined.  Class specifications are broadly written, and are intended to cover many positions throughout the City. 

Salary range determinations are based on an evaluation of duties, responsibilities and level of work assigned, and in accordance with the State's "equal pay for equal work" mandate.

You may access the City's classification and compensation plan by using the search functions to the left.  Files are converted from word processing format so original format is not always retained.

Salary rates shown in the compensation plan and in the grid to left, are base pay rates and do not include pay differentials (e.g., recruitment incentives) that may be authorized for the class or selected positions.
