Hi Meghan,

WA has four classified series related to building and grounds maintenance. I’ve provided general information about each series and available assignment pay followed by a list of the specific class titles. Let me know if you have questions. 😊

  *   Employers are responsible to determine minimum and desirable qualifications on a position-by-position basis
     *   Class specifications include legal requirements and recommended desirable qualifications
  *   Org charts and position descriptions are a decentralized function and generally not provided to State HR
  *   Assignment pay is based on duties performed rather than licensure or certification
     *   Employer determines position eligibility
