Instructions:

1.  Complete the Position Audit/In-Grade Adjustment Questionnaire; be specific in all sections of the form. Please note that the in-grade adjustment option applies only to APAS bargaining unit members. Classified civil service employees, be advised that a classification specification cannot be substituted for a list of current job duties. Sign the questionnaire on the last page; your signature certifies that the information contained in the questionnaire is complete and true to the best of your knowledge.
2. Attach materials or samples to assist in the determination of the proper classification.
3. Submit all completed audit materials to the Office of Human Resources at hr@ysu.edu; written confirmation indicating receipt of the materials will be sent to you. The Office of Human Resources forwards the information you submit to your immediate supervisor and/or department head for notification, review, and input.

Audit Process:

The Office of Human Resources utilizes information received from you and your immediate supervisor and/or department head to develop an updated position description. Once the position description is finalized, a report and analysis will be circulated for approvals. You will be notified, in writing, of the findings of the audit process within the number of days specified by your bargaining unit agreement.

Appeals:

Classified Staff: If you disagree with the findings of the audit, an appeal may be filed within 30 days of the notification by following the instructions provided by the State Personnel Board of Review (SPBR) on their website.

APAS: If you disagree with the findings of the audit, an appeal may be filed by completing the APAS Audit Appeal Form (request from Brandi Osborn at bosborn@ysu.edu) and submitting it to the Office of Human Resources within 30 days of the date of notification of the results of the audit.
