C. New classification titles needed by a constituent institution (e.g., grant-funded

research positions) may be proposed for addition to the university classification

system at any time. The HRAB-SPA will consider such proposals at their regular

meetings or through electronic means in order to assure rapid consideration. An

intent of the HRAB-SPA will be to review the current classification and

compensation approach, including numbers of classes, ways to simplify the

classification structure, and alternative classification and compensation programs.

D. UNCGA will maintain a data base that will contain a listing of all classifications as

well as additional details necessary for generating reports to interested bodies. Each

constituent institution may choose to elaborate on these classifications in advertising

positions or in their own data system. Constituent institutions will continue to

provide data to OSP’s Personnel Management Information System (PMIS).

III.

General Criteria for Delegation of Classification and Compensation Functions--The
Chancellor’s Responsibilities

As constituent institutions prepare to request responsibility for managing the day-to-day
operations in the area of either current or subsequently approved classification and
compensation systems, each institution must recognize that delegation of authority
requires that the chancellor assume responsibility for specific functions that will be
evaluated on a schedule to be recommended by the HRAB-SPA and approved by the
president and the director of state personnel. Specifically, the report of the Transition
Team provides that the following criteria must be met in order for constituent institutions
to receive delegation of authority for managing classification and compensation. Requests
for delegation of such authority will assume that the chancellor is prepared to meet these
criteria.

A.The chancellor of each institution will be responsible for assuring that all

programs comply with applicable statutes, rules and regulations.

B.The chancellor of each institution will, through the human resources director,

ensure that a staff is recruited, trained, and retained to manage human resource

functions by:

1.

requiring attendance at training programs offered by OSP and other

organizations as appropriate to develop and maintain knowledge, skills and

abilities commensurate with job duties; and

2.

maintaining staffing levels that are consistent with the size, complexity and

resources of the institution.
