The Civil Service Commission, as required by
law, shall establish and maintain classification plans for all positions
in the classified service of the Township of Burlington, which shall
consist of a:
A.Â
Schedule of class titles arranged according to series
of classes and occupational groupings or other appropriate order;
and
B.Â
Class specifications for each class of positions,
which shall include:
(1)Â
The title of the class which shall be suggestive of
the work and indicative of the rank of the class;
(2)Â
A definition of the class of positions, indicating
the kind of work performed and the extent of the organizational relationships
involved;
(3)Â
Examples of work which describe the nature and extent
of the duties and responsibilities of positions in the class and the
supervisory and organization relationships involved, all of which
shall be considered descriptive and not restrictive;
(4)Â
Minimum requirements and qualifications essential
to the performance of the work of the class, as approved by the Chief
Examiner and Secretary; and
(5)Â
Such other information as may be necessary.
A.Â
The Chief Examiner within the Department of Civil
Service and Secretary of the Civil Service Commission shall put into
effect and administer position classification plans approved by the
Civil Service Commission, and in this regard shall:
(1)Â
Require the approved class titles be used in all official
records and communication relating to personnel, including payrolls
and budgets;
(2)Â
Classify new positions and reclassify existing positions
to reflect current conditions;
(3)Â
Approve specifications for new classes and modifications
of specifications for existing classes to ensure their accuracy; and
(4)Â
Notify the appointing authority and other affected
persons of changes in position classification plans and of official
actions taken in such matters.
B.Â
The appointing authority shall promptly notify the
Chief Examiner and Secretary of new positions to be established, the
authority for their establishment and of all organizational changes
or changes in the duties and responsibilities of individual positions,
and such additional information as may be required.
Each position in the classified service shall
be assigned to a class in the position classification on the basis
of the character and level of difficulty of its assigned duties and
responsibilities. Positions shall be assigned to the same class when
their duties and responsibilities are sufficiently similar that:
No person shall be appointed or employed under
a title not appropriate to the duties to be performed nor assigned
to perform duties other than those properly pertaining to the position
which he legally holds, except as provided in these rules.
A.Â
When the duties and responsibilities of a position
change to the extent that they are no longer similar to the duties
and responsibilities of other positions in the same class and the
class title is no longer appropriate, the Chief Examiner and Secretary
shall, after review:
B.Â
No reclassification of any position shall become effective
until the Chief Examiner and Secretary have so advised the appointing
authority and the employee holding the position and have afforded
them a reasonable opportunity to disagree with the determination.
(1)Â
Any change in the classification of any employee's
position as a result of a reclassification shall be administered in
accordance with these rules pertaining to the type of change to be
effected, after the appointing authority has had the opportunity to
reassign the employee to the duties and responsibilities to which
he has permanent rights.
(2)Â
Should the change as a result of the reclassification
adversely affect an employee, the employee shall have a reasonable
opportunity to disagree with the determination.
A.Â
The classes of positions and duties assigned thereto,
as more particularly set forth within Schedules 1 and 2 attached hereto
and made part hereof by reference and more particularly set forth
within a certain report entitled "Reclassification Survey for Burlington
Township," submitted by the State of New Jersey Department of Civil
Service, three copies of which have been placed in the office of the
Township Clerk and during normal business hours are available for
public inspection, are hereby created and adopted as amendments to
the Administrative Code and Personnel Code of the Township of Burlington.
B.Â

with their proposed titles and divisional classifications.
(2)Â
