Synopsis
|
Respondent, Wetzel County Board of Education, moved Grievant to its tech school to facilitate her duties as transportation director/coordinator. Unlike Respondent’s other schools, the tech school only has a half-time secretary. Grievant occupies a multi-classified position that includes the Secretary III classification. In moving Grievant to the tech school, Respondent increased her secretarial/clerical duties by having her answer the phone and door when the half-time secretary is not working. Grievant claims entitlement to additional compensation and the assignment of a full-time secretary to the tech school. While Grievant is apparently working out of classification since her secretarial/clerical duties are not in the State Code’s definition of Secretary III, Grievant failed to prove entitlement to the relief requested. Accordingly, this grievance is DENIED.
