CivilServiceBoard | 2013-07-24 | 4 | City of Alameda Page 4 Civil Service Board Minutes Regular Meeting July 24, 2013 Resources Director has the authority approve certain actions such as lateral transfers or designation of eligible lists. Member Santos asked if this means that the transfer is done on an incumbent basis. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated yes. Member Santos stated, so the idea is that if there are other incumbents in the Senior Management Analyst classification, they would subsequently be moved to a more specific classification. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated that is correct. For instance, this Senior Management Analyst is moving to the Fire Administrative Services Supervisor classification. In Human Resources, there is another Senior Management Analyst and sometime in the future the Board will be presented with a Senior Human Resources Analyst job specification to approve and be advised of a lateral transfer of an incumbent from the general Senior Management Analyst classification to the specialized Senior Human Resources Management Analyst classification. Member Santos stated the idea being, the incumbent is already qualified and it is just a cleanup of the classification. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated yes. President Horikoshi asked if this person was already working in the Fire Department. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated yes. Vice President Batchelor asked if this person who was a Senior Management Analyst, has met the majority of the examples of duties of the new Fire Administrative Services Supervisor job specification. He further stated, that the Senior Management Analyst job specification establishes that incumbents are to supervise assigned staff, and asked if this particular individual possessed the skills to be able to supervise this new group. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated, yes, and added that this is not a new group of employees that will be supervised. The Senior Management Analyst assigned to the Fire Department currently supervises these employees. Member McHugh asked if there was change in duties. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated no. President Horikoshi stated that it sounds like what is being stated is that the Senior Management Analyst classification has been used in more than one department. And now Human Resources is working to make the positions more specific, and that it does not necessarily mean that that part of the organization will change or that the structure will change. The title will be more reflective of the actual duties of that particular position. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated that is correct and further stated that the job specification supports that title. Vice President Batchelor asked if the Senior Management Analyst classification stays open, can other people be assigned to it? Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated that the classification will probably be retained. There may be instances where the City would want a general position. Vice President Batchelor asked if the City has made the decision to get rid of the Senior Management Analyst positions and move folks into other more specific classifications, but will retain the general classification as well. Acting Human Resources Director Kovacs stated that the City will still retain the general classification to possibly use at a later date. But, in those unique circumstances where there is a certain specialized expertise or skill set required, specialized classifications will be used as opposed to a general classification. Member Santos stated, for clarification, the position is not open but the classification is still there.
