Jill Kovacs responded that if a new recruitment was opened now for Park Maintenance Worker, we would want park-focused experience. However, it would depend on the strength of the recruitment pool whether someone with other greens or landscaping experience would do well in the recruitment. Should the Golf Course reopen at some point, it would remain to be seen if we would expand this classification or create a second classification. Vice President Horikoshi stated that in terms of the examples of duties, he remembers previous discussions about swimming pools, baseball diamonds and tennis courts. He asked if recruitments tested generally for such position, or if there is a position that is going to work on swimming pools and do we recruit for someone with that kind of experience? Chris Low replied that a Maintenance Worker I recruitment is open now that specifies where that vacancy is and the recruitment is tailored to fill that particular vacancy. Given the fact that eligible lists are initially good for six months, we would be going for that specific type of experience. President Avonnet Peeler stated that the definition of Park Maintenance Worker refers to recreational areas which is golf courses and parks. Board Member Dean Batchelor asked if there were plans to combine these job descriptions since the skills for Maintenance Worker I are similar to those for Park Maintenance Worker, and was there a promotional concept to allow opportunity for the employees. Chris Low responded that we did not look at combining the two classifications; Jill looked at one specification and he looked at the Maintenance Worker specification, as those were the areas where we were assigned. But to look at combining the two specifications, such that there would be perhaps greater opportunities for folks, for employees in the future, there certainly are Park Maintenance Workers who have gotten very used to working | CivilServiceBoard/2010-04-07.pdf |
