Board approves personnel-classification changes for Youth Services Center to address pay compression
Summary
Lancaster County approved personnel-policy-board recommendations to create classifications — youth services manager of administrative services and youth services detention administrator — intended to address internal pay compression; director Bridal Alexander said existing positions will be eliminated, not added.
Lancaster County commissioners approved personnel policy board recommendations Aug. 4 to create two classifications for the Lancaster County Youth Services Center: a youth services manager of administrative services and a youth services detention administrator.
Bridal Alexander, director of the Youth Services Center, explained the change arose after a union contract settlement increased some salaries, producing compression among supervisors. Alexander said the personnel board approved the classifications and that the change will not add staff: current positions will be eliminated and restructured. "It's important that we maintain some internal equity within the department," Alexander said, and commissioners expressed support for the efficiency and equity rationale.
The board approved the change on a motion and roll-call vote; the transcript records the policy-board approval and the board's vote but does not list salary ranges or implementation dates.
