TITLE
title
Reclassification of Administrative Assistant III (MPO) to MPO Executive Assistant beginning October 1, 2024 (County Fiscal Year 2025)
body
BRIEF OVERVIEW
Reclassification of positions typically occurs during the Hernando County budget approval cycle unless a vacancy occurs during the year. A review of the job duties and functions of the Administrative Assistant III job description (copy attached) was completed, a review of job descriptions of other MPO jurisdictions occurred, and a reclassification request was submitted for the Fiscal Year 2025 budget cycle as it was determined that the update to the job description was appropriate.
The job functions entail more in-depth requirements, duties, and experience than the level of an Administrative Assistant III. The Human Resources Department reviewed and recommended a change of Pay Grade (PG) from PG 5 to PG 8 for the updated job description. The proposed job description is attached which also reflects the job title change to MPO Executive Assistant.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The updated job description would result in a change of Pay Grade (PG) from PG 5 to PG 8. Salaries and fringe benefits are 100% reimbursable under the MPO’s grants for eligible work activities. Funding would be included in the proposed Hernando County Fiscal Year 2025 budget in the Fund 1031 departmental line items.
LEGAL NOTE
Pursuant to Chapter 139.175, Florida Statutes, the MPO Board has the authority to take the recommended action.
