Access to job evaluation information continues
Effective
2002, employees will have further access to job evaluation rating information.
Upon written request, employees can obtain information on the most recent
ratings assigned to each of the Aiken Plan factors and the point total
for their position. In addition, employees will be able to contact information
providers to access the Aiken Plan. The information providers will assist
employees in understanding the interpretation of each factor applied
in the rating of their jobs.
Access to job evaluation was a joint project between the Department
of Human Resources and members of CUPE Local 1615, in accordance with
the Memorandum of Understanding on Job Evaluation. Membership included
Monty Green, manager, Employer and Employee Relations, Human Resources;
Brian Farewell, CUPE national representative; Robert Nichols, associate
director, Human Resources; Ralph Tapper, president, CUPE Local 1615;
Mary Clarke, manager, Recruitment, Job Evaluation and Salary Administration,
Human Resources; Dawn Learning, 2nd vice president, CUPE Local 1615;
and Colleen Butler, human resources officer, Human Resources.
Employees may request to obtain their rating information, where the
data will be released confidentially to the employee. Access is optional,
so information will be released only if the employee submits the Request
for Job Evaluation Rating Information form, (available at www.mun.ca/humanres/).
Therefore, employees can choose not to obtain the rating information
on their position.
Access to the job evaluation information will occur in phases in which
CUPE employees can request their rating information effective January
3, 2002, and non-bargaining staff can request the information as of
March 1, 2002. Employees in the NAPE bargaining units are also expected
to have access to job evaluation data, and discussions are ongoing with
respective NAPE representatives.
New
Job Evaluation Review and Appeal Procedures: The committee has revised
the procedures for initiating job evaluation reviews and for appealing
job evaluation decisions. The revised procedures are available on the
Department of Human Resources web page www.mun.ca/humanres/ and in respective
collective agreements.
Further information, including a question and answer section, will be
released in the next issue of the Communicator.
If you have any questions please contact one of the joint project members
whose names are noted above.
