Wage Reclassification. An employee may apply for wage reclassification based on the responsibilities of the job and the duties regularly performed by the individual. An employee shall be given copies of any job descriptions upon request. The employee who wishes to apply for reclassification shall file the request, along with rationale for this change, to the immediate supervisor not more than once during the term of any Collective Bargaining Agreement; a copy of the request shall be provided to the Union, and the Union may submit its reaction to the request in writing within ten (10) work days of receipt. The supervisor shall respond with the decision, complete with rationale and response to each point in the application if denied, within thirty (30) work days of receipt of the application or the reaction of the Union, whichever is later; a copy of the response shall be provided to the Union. If the employee is not satisfied with the response, that employee may appeal the decision to the Superintendent by filing a written request to do so within ten (10) working days of receipt of the response. The decision to the application for wage reclassification shall be forthcoming based on the merits of the request. It is not appropriate for the supervisor to defer a decision to the next collective bargaining between the Union and the Board, unless such negotiations are imminent or are already underway at the time the response is due.
