Synopsis Grievant claims that she was performing duties outside of the Health and Human Services Aide classification assigned to the position she formerly occupied. Grievant seeks a retroactive salary increase for an unspecified period of time when she was performing extra work. It is undisputed that Grievant failed to submit a Position Description Form to the Division of Personnel for a classification determination. Grievant failed to demonstrate by a preponderance of the evidence that Respondents acted in an arbitrary and capricious manner as it relates to classification and compensation of the position she occupied. Accordingly, this grievance is denied.
