<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hello, <div><br></div><div>We do have complexity defined (quoted below as well as link to full manual). </div><div><br></div><div>Advanced level is captured within the compensable factors and is accounted for in the job classification; however, agencies have the discretion (and often do) create more specific job levels within their agency to further distinguish Virginia's broadbanded class structure. This typically includes levels for entry, practitioner, senior, etc. </div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.dhrm.virginia.gov/docs/default-source/hr/manuals/hrmanual.pdf?sfvrsn=2">https://www.dhrm.virginia.gov/docs/default-source/hr/manuals/hrmanual.pdf?sfvrsn=2</a> <br></div><div><div><br></div><div><b>COMPENSABLE FACTORS</b> </div><div>Human resource professionals or line managers should be able to assign
positions to the appropriate Career Groups by comparing the overall duties
and responsibilities listed in the Employee Work Profile to the Concept of
Work outlined in the Career Group Description. The compensable factors
will be used primarily to determine the appropriate Role to which a position
should be allocated within a Career Group. Definitions of the three
compensable factors are as follows: </div><div><u>1. Complexity of Work </u></div><div>This factor describes the nature of work in terms of resources (e.g.,
machines, manuals, guidelines and forms) used or encountered and the
processes applied. This factor takes into account the number and variety of
variables considered, the depth and breath of activity and the originality
exercised.
· Difficulty - the relative character of the work process and the
corresponding, thinking, analysis and judgment required of the employee
while doing the work.
· Scope and Range of Assignments – the breadth and variety of the
employee’s assignments.
· Knowledge, Skills and Abilities – the level of information, experience and
qualifications needed by the employee in order to perform the assigned
duties.
· Nature of Contacts – the extent of the employee’s human interactions
within and/or outside the organization in terms of both frequency and the
depth of information exchanged. </div><div><u>2. Results (or Scope) </u></div><div>This factor describes the work outcomes and the range and impact of
effects, such as the benefit or harm to citizens, the gain or loss of resources and
the goodwill created. Impact – the range of people, things, and organizations directly affected by
the employee.
· Effect of Services – the extent to which decisions and work products made
by the employee affect the level of service, quality of work, welfare of
constituents, the organization’s image and cost of operations.
· Consequence of Error – the potential costs of the employee’s mistakes in
terms of financial and human costs, efficiency, morale, physical maintenance
and image. </div><div><u>3. Accountability </u></div><div>This factor describes the employee’s responsibility or authority exercised
in terms of guidance given to fellow workers, independence and autonomy of
functioning and finality of decisions made.
· Leadership – the level of control the employee has over resources such as
people, functions, facilities and budget.
· Judgment and Decision-making – the types and kinds of decisions made
by the employee and the finality of these decisions and actions taken.
· Independence of Action – latitude or freedom of action exercised by the
employee. <br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#000000" face="arial narrow, sans-serif">
