CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY MANUAL CHAPTER: 06 Personnel Policies Policy No. 06.05.01 SECTION: 05 Administrative Directives Page: 1 of 2 SUBJECT: 01 Working
Out of Class PURPOSE AND SCOPE: The purpose of this directive is to outline the time frame and the process for determining when an employee is working out of class, and how that employee
will be compensated for working out of class. PROCEDURE: When an employee is qualified for and is temporarily assigned the authority, duties and responsibility of a position allocated
to a higher classification, the employee shall receive an increase in salary to the minimum of the class temporarily assigned or five (5) percent over the employee's regular rate of
pay, whichever is greater. All such payments shall be based upon a regular and continuous assignment and shall be paid for all time worked in the position, once the employee has continuously
performed the additional duties for a minimum of one hundred-sixty (160) hours in that assignment. Such payments shall be made only during the time that the employee is actually performing
the higher level duties and will commence the first day the employee assumes the position. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply when performing the duties of the position
allocated to a higher classification for the purpose of training, or if the issue of working out of class is covered by a collective bargaining agreement. EMPLOYEES MAY NOT ASSIGN THEMSELVES
TO WORK OUT OF CLASS: In order for employees to be assigned to temporarily work out of their classification, the employee's supervisor must obtain prior approval of a work plan from
the Human Resources Office. All temporary assignments for working out of classification made, but not approved by the Human Resources Office, will not be paid. Employees may be assigned
to a split of the duties in the higher classification; however, such split must be evenly divided between employees. Compensation shall be split evenly as well. Upon release from duties
and and responsibilities of the position assigned to a higher classification, the employee's salary will be reduced to the rate the employee would be receiving had the temporary assignment
never been made.
