  6. Following implementation of the classification plan contained herein, no classified employee shall be reduced by reassignment to a classification with a lower pay grade or to a lower compensation rate.

The position will be assigned to the most appropriate classification as indicated by the information and statements submitted regarding duties currently performed.
    3. The audit and evaluation process shall be completed when the associate vice president for human resources approves the classifications assignment and written notification of the result is sent to the department head and the incumbent (if applicable).
