SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The County of Monterey Department of Social Services requested a compensation study of the Assistant Director Social Services classification in order to identify if the base wage salary is appropriately compensated within the County's labor market.
The Human Resources Department approved and conducted the compensation study. The results of the external review of comparable positions within County's labor market found that the Assistant Director Social Services classification is below the market average. The current base wage would need to be adjusted by 12.85% in order to align the salary with the salary mean of the comparable agencies' classifications. As a result, it is recommended that the salary range for the Assistant Director Social Services be adjusted as indicated in Attachment A.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
The Department of Social Services concurs with the recommendations.
FINANCING:
The base wage adjustment will result in estimated additional salary and benefits costs of $29,885 per fiscal year. This was an unbudgeted expenditure that will be absorbed within the Department of Social Services SOC005 FY 2021-22 Approved Budget.
