Committee endorses Nottley recommendation placing Veteran Service Officer in grade 5
Summary
The Policy/Personnel Committee recommended approval of a classification study that placed the Veteran Service Officer at grade 5 (1,565 points); the job description lists accreditation requirements and duties assisting veterans with benefits and emergency grants.
The committee reviewed a classification analysis for the Veteran Service Officer prepared by Municipal Consulting Services and recommended acceptance of the consultant's finding that the role should be placed in pay grade 5 based on a point total of 1,565. Appendix D contains the consultant's cover letter, point-factor table and the job description. The committee's motion to recommend approval to the full board passed (moved by Shayne Machen, seconded by Eric Gustad).
Appendix D's job description describes duties such as preparing claims packets, conducting interviews, maintaining client records, managing emergency grant programs, and representing veterans in appeals work. The position requires U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs accreditation (or the ability to qualify for accreditation) and a valid Michigan driver's license. The committee's recommendation will be forwarded to the Board of Commissioners for final action.
