Classification System
Classifications
Definition: Employment is a complex system of controls and contracts around which work is negotiated. The following categories of employment and related general policies represent the reference materials in common use at The University of Arizona Libraries.
There are eight Categories of Employment for employees who work at the Libraries:
- Library Faculty
- Administrative Personnel/Team Leaders
- Appointed Personnel (Year-to-Year)
- Classified Staff
- Temporary Employees
- Student Employees
- Graduate Assistants (GA's) - information is under construction
- Volunteers
Each classification and its general conditions of employment are described, as well as the following, where applicable to a given category:
- Policies and Procedures
- Personnel Manuals
- Participation in Shared Governance and other University or Library Groups
- Calendars/Forms
- Library Job Families and their Position Descriptions
Reclassification, Regrades
Reclassification is a change in the classification of a position resulting from a job audit by Human Resources where it is found that the duties and responsibilities of the position will be changed permanently, materially, and significantly. An employee must meet the minimum qualifications of the new classification in order to be reclassified.
Regrade is a change in the pay grade of a classification to align more closely the classification's pay rate with the University's compensation philosophy.
Detailed information and process steps for reclasses and regrades is under construction. In the meantime, please let us know what your questions are and how we can help.
