Each classification title listed in this rule shall have a corresponding classification specification that sets forth the classification criteria, the summary of essential functions, duties, knowledges, skills and abilities, minimum qualifications and unusual working conditions. The first page of each classification specification shall mandate a specific numbered duty be performed for a specified percentage of time in order for the classification to be assigned. It is mandatory that the first duty be performed for a minimum of twenty percent of the time, unless otherwise stated on the first page of the classification specification.

Whenever the word “supervises” appears in a classification specification, it means that an employee must assign and review work, complete employee performance evaluation forms as the rater, recommend or authorize leave, and recommend or initiate disciplinary action for at least two full-time permanent civil service employees or the equivalent who are paid by warrant of the county auditor. College interns, student help, contractual employees and the like, and employees of other political jurisdictions are not to be considered as full-time civil service employees.

When a supervisor, as defined in the supervisor paragraph, is considered to be a “working supervisor” (i.e., performing the essential job functions of one of the subordinate classifications listed in the supervisory specification), then the supervisory requirements may be met by supervising positions whose classification is not listed in the supervisory specification.

If new or revised minimum qualifications are enacted as a result of a change in an applicable state or federal statute, the legislated minimum qualifications shall supersede those listed in the classification specification on file with the secretary of state until such time the classification specification can be revised to agree with the change in statute

A board of county commissioners shall establish a salary to be paid to employees of the county department of job and family services of that county in accordance with section 124.14 of the Revised Code.
