Can I obtain a copy of another employees job description?
To receive a copy of another employees job description, submit your request in writing along with $1 check made payable to WVU.

My job duties have changed. How can I get my position reviewed for possible upgrade?
Complete an updated position description form. The form is available on the Human Resources web site. When the appropriate signatures are obtained, the position description will be forwarded to Human Resources. HR will review the description and forward the results of the review within 30 working days.
-
My supervisor has recently given me several new job duties. Do I qualify for an upgrade as a result?
Not necessarily. More work doesn�t always mean that your paygrade changes, because each paygrade encompasses a wide range of points. Many other factors must be considered. But anytime duties are added to a position, a supervisor and employee should prepare a new PIQ and submit it to C&C for review. Whether or not the job title or paygrade changes, C&C needs to maintain a CURRENT copy of every position�s PIQ.
-
A co-worker in higher paygrade is on a leave of absence and I am performing her duties. Am I eligible for additional pay?
Employees are eligible for an interim upgrade if the temporary assignment will last more than 4 consecutive weeks.
-
If I work on a holiday, how will I be compensated?
If an employee is non-exempt, compensation in the form of substitute time off (STO) or additional pay at the rate of one-and-one-half (1�) for actual hours worked on the holiday will be granted.
If the employee is exempt, compensation in the form of STO on an hour-for-hour basis will be granted. Holiday STO must be used within six (6) months of being earned.

What are the entry rates for each paygrade?

-
If I get an upgrade, how much will my salary increase?
In the case of an upgrade, salary will be increased 5% per paygrade or the entry rate of the new paygrade, whichever is greater.
-
If I apply for and receive a position that is in a lower paygrade than my current position, will my salary decrease?
If an employee applies for and accepts a position in a lower paygrade, s/he will lose five percent of salary for each paygrade decreased or the entry rate of the new paygrade, whichever is less.

Where can I get a copy of a generic job description?
A set of all of the generic job descriptions can be found at either the Wise Library or the Evansdale Library. The Classification and Compensation Unit can provide a copy of generic job descriptions if provided with a written request and a $1 fee.
-
What is the deadline for submitting a job for posting?
Positions descriptions must reach the Classification and Compensation department, with all of the appropriate signatures, no later than noon on Monday to be included in that week's postings. Certain situations may require the unit to research the position further, thus lengthening the process. Contact the unit at 293-5700 for information regarding specific situations.

How long will it take to find out the results of my position review?
According to Series 62, the Classification and Compensation Unit has 30 working days, from the time that we receive the review request, to complete the review and make a recommendation. Extenuating circumstances (including the need to submit a request to the statewide Job Evaluation Committee [JEC] for further evaluation and review) may lengthen this process. However, the C&C unit has recently implemented a �Fast-Track� review process, in which we pledge to complete routine reviews in half the time�14 days. Contact the unit at 293-5700 for information regarding specific situations.
If you need any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact our office at 293-5700.
