Thompson <br /> County Manager • <br /> Orange County <br /> Hillsborough, N. C. 27278 <br /> Dear Kenneth: <br /> In accordance with our conversation of November 2, I will outline the <br /> conditions of the proposed position classification and pay plan study. <br /> - As soon as is convenient for your staff and employees, Mrs. Pace will <br /> meet with approximately 222 general county employees and explain the pro- <br /> - posed study! Mrs. Pace will ask each employee to complete a questionnaire <br /> describing Lis or her duties and responsibilities. We will ask supervisors <br /> to review the questionnaires completed by their employees and on a separate <br /> sheet to indicate any difference of opinion and to answer additional questions. <br /> We will contact at least one half of the employees and ask them to <br /> provide such additional information as necessary to clarify duties and <br /> responsibilities and to resolve differences of opinion. We will prepare <br /> class specifications for each class of positions in non-competitive service <br /> departments'. <br /> We understand that staff of the Department of Human Resources will <br /> review all competitive service positions in order that similar class titles <br /> can be used where possible. We are looking forward to working with their <br /> staff in order that all county positionS can be evaluated by the same <br /> standards <br /> . <br /> We plan to survey public salaries and fringe benefits and present <br /> comparative salary data from Alamance, Durham, and Wake counties, and from <br /> Chapel Hill!p Durham, and the State of North Carolina. <br /> We wilq. review the Orange County personnel resolution if you desire <br /> and suggest such changes as seem appropriate. <br /> We propose to complete the classification and pay plan by April 1, 1984. <br /> We are prepared to supply fifty copies of the classification and pay plans. <br /> Total charges for the above classification and pay plan would be $9,000.00. <br /> If you or the Commissioners have additional questions, • lease call me. <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> Donald Hayman <br /> Assistant Director <br />
