Background and Rationale

body

The Compliance and Ethics Office is requesting new unrepresented job classifications - Occupational Safety and Compliance Administrator position and Safety Officer.

 

These roles will improve operational efficiency and create safety programs; serve as a countywide resource in Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) compliance, occupational health, employee safety, visitor safety, and property loss prevention.

 

These classifications are a direct report to the Compliance Division Manager- Enterprise Risk.

 

The Human Resources department followed its normal process for conducting the classification study and determined:

                     There are no existing classifications that adequately describe all of the duties, responsibilities and knowledge required of the new classifications.

                     The classifications were point rated by a human resources job evaluation team and Occupational Safety and Compliance Administrator received a total of 880 points and Safety Officer received a total of 850 points.

                     The recommended salary is based on Ramsey County’s job evaluation procedures and policies and is consistent with the County compensation policy and practices (Resolution 95-356) and the Personnel Act (Minnesota Statute 383A.282).
