§ 3.30.067. Acting assignments.  


Latest version.
  • An employee may be assigned temporarily, not to exceed six months, to duties necessary to maintain an adequate level of municipal services to get some special job done, or to accomplish or take charge of some special project or emergency. Assignments are not appointments and carry with them no rights except for higher pay as set forth under rule 12 concerning pay.

    An acting assignment is made when an employee, although the employee may not be fully qualified, may be assigned some essential functions or essential duties of a higher level position. This type of assignment benefits the employee, who gains some knowledge and skill in a higher level position. Time in an acting assignment may be counted toward experience requirements in meeting minimum qualifications for class of position concerned.

    An acting assignment requires the prior written approval of the director.
