ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL
STAFF REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: OLIVER CHI, CITY MANAGER 6~,~
DATE: OCTOBER 14, 2008
SUBJECT: CLASSIFICATION AND COMPENSATION STUDY
SUMMARY
At the August 26, 2008 meeting, City Council approved a Request for Proposal for a
City-wide classification and total compensation study. A Request for Proposal was
issued on August 27, 2008, and on September 24, 2008, eleven (11) bids were received
for this study.
The classification and compensation study will enable the City to define job duties,
responsibilities, qualifications, ensure equal pay for equal work, aid in organizational
planning, performance evaluations, staff development, training, and salary and budget
administration. It will serve as a legal and official written record identifying the basic
parameters of any job in the classification plan. The compensation component will
establish internal and external equities and ensure that our team members are
compensated fairly with the labor market. By aligning job duties with job titles and
descriptions, the results of the study will assist in developing a fair, consistent and
competitive total compensation program in order to attract and retain quality staff.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the contract be awarded to Public Sector Personnel Consultants,
for the total bid price not to exceed $62,500, and authorize the City Manager and the
City Clerk to execute the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for the study have been included in the 2008-2009.
DISCUSSION
On August 26, 2008, City Council approved the Request for Proposal for a classification
