What are the timelines for the classification appeals process?
The Division of Personnel has a stated goal of processing classification reviews within 30 days after receipt. Additional time may be required for the review if it is necessary to request additional information such as a more complete description of the duties or an organizational chart. Also, the timeline is necessarily extended if a field audit is required to complete the review. The agency will receive a memo acknowledging receipt of the Position Description Form and the expected date of completion. If the employee does not receive a response within 30 days he or she should contact the Classification & Compensation Section and inquire about the review. Section phone numbers and e-mail addresses are found in the Contact Us section of the Classification & Compensation site.
