Case 3732 July 24, 2019
1 KJM:US
LOS ANGELES COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT
TO: THE PERSONNEL COMMISSION
FROM: Karen J. Martin
SUBJECT: Salary and Classification Study: Compliance Related Job Classifications (Case 3732)
Recommendations:
I. It is recommended that the Personnel Commission establish a new class of Senior Compliance Analyst;
that the new class be placed in the Personnel Group, Administration Series; that the new class description
be adopted; that the new class be allocated to Salary Schedule 8286.80; that the salary setting basis for the
new class be based on a four-step differential above the key class of Personnel Analyst; and that the
examination authorization for the class be Open and Promotional (Dual Certification).
New Class of Senior Compliance Analyst:
Salary Schedule 8286.80
$8,286.80 $8,742.58 $9,223.42 $9,730.70 $10,265.89 Monthly
$99,441.60 $104,910.96 $110,681.04 $116,768.40 $123,190.68 Annually
II. It is recommended that the Personnel Commission establish a new class of ADA Compliance Officer; that
the new class be placed in the Personnel Group, Administration Series; that the new class description be
adopted; that the new class be allocated to Salary Schedule 7445.30; that the salary setting basis for the
new class be based on a two-step differential above the key class of Personnel Analyst; and that the
examination authorization for the class be Open and Promotional (Dual Certification).
New Class of ADA Compliance Officer:
Salary Schedule 7445.30
$7,445.30 $7,854.79 $8,286.80 $8,742.58 $9,223.42 Monthly
$89,343.60 $94,257.48 $99,441.60 $104,910.96 $110,681.04 Annually
III. It is recommended that the Rule 596, OVERTIME, be amended to designate the new class of Senior
Compliance Analyst as Supervisory for purposes of overtime.
IV. It is recommended that the salary for the class of Compliance Officer in the Personnel Group,
Administration Series, be retitled to Compliance Analyst; that the salary for the class be reallocated from
salary schedule (8286.80) to salary schedule (6689.24); and that the salary setting basis for the class be
changed and based on direct alignment with the key class of Personnel Analyst.
Current Salary Allocation:
Salary Schedule 8286.80
$8,286.80 $8,742.58 $9,223.42 $9,730.70 $10,265.89 Monthly
$99,441.60 $104,910.96 $110,681.04 $116,768.40 $123,190.68 Annually
Case 3732 July 24, 2019
2 KJM:US
Proposed Salary Allocation:
Salary Schedule 6689.24
$6,689.24 $7,057.15 $7,445.30 $7,854.79 $8,286.80 Monthly
$80,270.88 $84,685.80 $89,343.60 $94,257.48 $99,441.60 Annually
V. It is recommended that the Personnel Commission approve a starred rate of $9,730.70 for EN 1056298
and EN 1054343, and a starred rate of $10,265.89 for EN 1019634 based on their prior service in the
class of Compliance Officer (retitled to Compliance Analyst).
VI. It is recommended that the Personnel Commission approve class specification revisions for the classes of
Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and Compliance Officer (retitled to Compliance Analyst).
Bases of Recommendations:
1. The General Counsel requested a comprehensive review of the District’s compliance related positions. Based
on the staffing needs expressed by the initiator of the study as well as information gathered on positions
prevalent in the compliance occupational area, staff is proposing the establishment of two new professional-
level compliance classes, one that provides assistance to the Director in the supervision of staff and
investigation of the more complex cases, and one that implements, coordinates, and monitors the District’s
ADA compliance activities. Additionally, staff’s recommendations included changes to existing compliance
related job descriptions as well as a salary reallocation for the class of Compliance Officer.
The proposed classification structure of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is summarized in the
attached organization chart.
2. An incumbent in the new class of Senior Compliance Analyst plans, organizes, and supervises the day-to-day
activities of a small unit engaged in investigating, analyzing, and resolving complaints, grievances of alleged
violations of civil rights, discrimination, gender equity, sexual harassment, and accessibility for individuals with
disabilities and other related policies at locations throughout the District; personally performs the more complex
investigation of complaints in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
The recommended salary for the new class is based on a four-step differential above the class of Personnel
Analyst. This is the salary setting basis that has been established for comparable classified senior professional-
level analyst positions in finance, personnel, and research within the Classified Service.
3. An incumbent in the new class of ADA Compliance Officer develops, implements, and evaluates policies,
procedures, and standards for the effective administration of a comprehensive District ADA compliance
program; coordinates and monitors compliance activities.
The recommended salary for this new class is based on a two-step differential above the class of Personnel
Analyst. Staff considers the proposed salary setting basis appropriate since it provides for a two-step
differential above the class of Compliance Analyst which recognizes the higher-level of independence and
scope of responsibilities associated with the new class. Additionally, it places the salary of the new class two
steps below the salary for the class of Senior Compliance Analyst class, which is a job classification that
encompasses higher-level responsibilities since an incumbent also assumes on-going supervisory
responsibilities in addition to conducting the more complex work of the assigned unit.
Case 3732 July 24, 2019
3 KJM:US
Staff surveyed other public agencies within the Greater Los Angeles area but was unable to identify an
adequate salary sample for an analogous position.
4. The recommended salary reallocation for the class of Compliance Officer (retitled to Compliance Analyst) is
intended to create a more appropriate salary setting basis for the class. The prior salary setting basis was
based on a four-step differential above Personnel Analyst. This salary setting basis was created when the class
was established in November of 1994. During that time compliance officers were assigned to the colleges
and required the incumbents to act as a sole technical advisor to administrators on compliance related matters
and required incumbents to be responsible for a broad range of problems without the presence of a technical
supervisor. In 2012, the District administration decided to centralize the compliance functions and moved all
compliance officers under the supervision of a Director of Affirmative Action Programs who was responsible
for the administration of the District’s compliance programs. This reorganization impacted the level of
responsibility these positions exercised and aligned them more closely with the class of Personnel Analyst.
Therefore, staff recommended a change in the salary setting basis and proposed a direct alignment with the
class of Personnel Analyst as the new salary setting basis.
The proposed salary schedule for the class of Compliance Officer (retitled to Compliance Analyst) is as
follows:
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5
$6,689.24 $7,057.15 $7,445.30 $7,854.79 $8,286.80 Monthly
$80,270.88 $84,685.80 $89,343.60 $94,257.48 $99,441.60 Annually
The proposed salary schedule also falls within the range of salary data for an analogous position identified in
the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, OES survey database.
5. The recommendation for a starred rate for EN 1054343, EN 1056298, and EN 1019634 is based on the
organizational change that occurred when the compliance functions were moved from the colleges to the
District Office several years back, as well as the desire of the District to limit financial loss to the incumbents.
Under the provisions of Rule 591, SALARY ALLOCATION AT RECLASSIFICATION OR
REALLOCATION, Paragraph C.4., this starred rate shall be in effect only as long as the incumbent remains
in the same position and until the starred rate falls within the schedule of the class to which reallocated by
virtue of future upward salary movement. If after a maximum time period of 39 months, the salary rate of the
incumbents’ positions have not been adjusted upward to meet the starred rate amount, the incumbents will be
assigned to the highest salary rate allocated to their job classifications.
6. The recommended titles for the new classes are descriptive of the level and type of duties that are assigned to
the positions.
7. The recommended title change for the class of Compliance Officer to Compliance Analyst is intended to
provide a more accurate reflection of the level of duties and scope of responsibilities reflected in the class
concept for this job classification.
8. Personnel Commission Rule 596, OVERTIME, defines a supervisory class as one where the primary duties
and responsibilities of the position consist of the supervision of a major operating unit at the Section level, or
its equivalent, and encompass the following characteristics:
• Customarily and regularly plan, organize, direct, and review the work of other employees.
• Customarily establish procedures regarding the operations of the assigned unit.
Case 3732 July 24, 2019
4 KJM:US
• Customarily and regularly exercise discretionary powers and sanctions.
• Customarily and regularly do not include the performance of duties similar to those of subordinates.
A Senior Compliance Analyst meets the supervisory class definition outlined in this rule.

1 KJM: US/PS
TO: THE PERSONNEL COMMISSION
FROM: Karen J. Martin
SUBJECT: Informative Report on Results of the Annual Job Classification Survey (Case 3731)
In August of 2006, the Personnel Commission adopted the Annual Job Classification Survey as a
new procedure to afford classified employees an opportunity, each year in April, to request an
informal review of the duties that he/she believes may be outside of his/her current job
classification. The survey form does not require any review or input by an employee’s immediate
supervisor and/or administration prior to submittal to the Personnel Commission.
In accordance with this implemented procedure, staff sent out the survey to all classified
employees (totaling 2198) in April. A total of 20 employees (less than 1%) participated in the
survey. Staff carefully reviewed all survey responses and prepared a summary of the findings
below.

* This does not include the survey response of 3 employees who submitted incomplete forms.
Case 3731 July 24, 2019
2 KJM: US/PS
Given the results of this year’s survey, staff comes to the same conclusion as during previous
surveys: the overwhelming majority of classified employees do not appear to have concerns with
the proper classification of their positions. Staff feels confident that classified employees are
knowledgeable of the classification study and temporary work out of classification process due to:
• access to Personnel Commission staff to get questions answered about classification,
compensation, and other matters within the purview of the Personnel Commission
• informational bulletins published by the Personnel Commission office
• information provided on the Personnel Commission website
