Executive Secretary for Workers Compensation
Personnel Officer H. Robert Budinger stated that after being tasked with coming up with a salary range for the Executive Secretary position, he received quotes from neighboring counties, and also looked at what previous employee salaries would be if they were still holding this position. Mr. Budinger recommended to the committee that the salary range be set at $45,000 to $60,000, stating it falls in line with what he received from neighboring counties. Mr. Budinger continued that if the previous office staff was still holding this position, and you did not factor in the Richardson & Stout agreement, they would be bringing in $70,000, so we will be saving some money. Legislator Graves asked if this amount includes benefits. Mr. Budinger stated no, it does not include benefits, it is just the salary. A motion made by Legislator Stockin, seconded by Legislator Fanton, and carried to create the full-time position of Executive Secretary for Workers Compensation at a salary range between $45,000 and $60,000. This position will fall under the Section IV Salary Plan, and a firm salary number will be set when the Section IV Salaries are set later in the budget process. Prepare Resolution and Refer to Ways and Means to fill the position
Adjournment
There being no further business to come before the committee, the meeting was adjourned at 11:43 a.m. following a motion by Legislator Decker, seconded by Legislator Fanton, and carried.
Respectfully submitted,
Meghan Washer, Secretary to Clerk of the Board
