How is a position of mixed job categories categorized?
General classification concept governing position involving more than one kind of work (i.e., different job categories) is normally classified on the basis of the paramount requirements and the highest level of work performed. Often the appropriate series is based on the highest-pay level of work that is performed for a majority of the time, e.g., at least 51 percent of the time. However, the highest level of work may not be the most appropriate job category for the position. Therefore, a job category should be determined only after considering the purpose of the position, paramount qualification required, sources of recruitment and line of progression.
