What is a reclassification?
A reclassification occurs when the duties of a position no longer correspond to the duties indicated on the job description from which the employee was hired. A request to reclassify a position must be initiated by a supervisor, at which time an employee will fill out a Job Analysis Questionnaire (JAQ) – Reclassification Requisition Instructions. The employee will list the duties and responsibilities of his/her position and, after a supervisory review, will be submitted to the department’s HR Generalist. A position is eligible for reclassification after the employee in the position has been performing the new and/or expanded duties for a period of six consecutive months.
