State of California M E M O R A N D U M REFERENCE CODE: 2002-070 DATE: October 28, 2002 TO: Employee Relations Officers Personnel Officers FROM: Department of Personnel Administration Classification and Compensation Division SUBJECT: Implementation of New Allocation Guidelines for Printing Trades Supervisory Classes CONTACT: Daniel Tokunaga, Staff Personnel Management Analyst (916) 322-3766 FAX: (916) 327-1944 E-mail: DanielTokunaga@dpa.ca.gov The Department of Personnel Administration has developed revised allocation guidelines for the classes of Printing Trades Supervisor I, Printing Trades Supervisor II, and Associate Printing Plant Superintendent. These new guidelines have been developed in consultation with user departments and the Association of California State Supervisors. The revised allocation guidelines have an effective date of August 30, 2002, and replace the Exceptional Allocation Criteria Guidelines that were previously put into effect August 31, 2001. User departments may apply the guidelines under Modified Classification Review (MCR) Level I. Proper personnel management practice recommends that allocations made under the new guidelines take effect on a prospective basis when practical; however, under no circumstance may these guidelines be used to support appointments or out-of-class claims effective prior to August 30, 2002. If you have any questions, please contact Daniel Tokunaga at the phone number or e-mail address shown above. Michael T. Navarro, Chief Classification and Compensation Division Attachments will be distributed via mail.
