BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Each year in accordance with the Administrative Code and as a part of the budget process, the Executive
Committee considers organization recommendations including but not limited to staff classifications and
compensation. Budget related decisions are included in the annual budget for consideration and approval
by the full Commission. As a result of COVID-19, this annual consideration has been delayed until May in
order to obtain as much financial information as possible before the required June 15 budget deadline. It
is likely that the FY 2020/21 budget will require continuous monitoring, assessment and potential
adjustment throughout the fiscal year.
The current staffing level is 54 full time equivalents with 4 vacancies. Each of these 4 vacancies has been
held vacant for at least 6 months due to recruitment challenges for specialized positions and a need to
assess the organization structure. The FY 2019/20 cost savings for these vacancies exceed $650,000.
The Measure A Ordinance limits administrative salaries and benefits to 1% of Measure A revenues and
Commission policy states that administrative costs, including administrative salaries and benefits, will not
1
Agenda Item 5
exceed 4%. These limitations have not been exceeded. Even with reduced revenues projected as a result
of COVID-19, compliance with these caps is expected.
The Commission’s delivery of projects and programs is primarily accomplished through the use of vendors,
consultants and contractors with oversight from RCTC staff.
As a result of COVID-19 impacts, an indefinite hiring freeze has been implemented.
Fiscal Year 2020/21 Budget Assumptions
The Commission compensation structure utilizes a merit-based evaluation process to individually
determine if annual salary adjustments are warranted based on performance. Any merit-based salary
adjustments are made on a sliding scale up to the maximum percentage determined by the Commission
in its annual budget adoption. The FY 2019/20 budget included funds for up to 4% merit-based increases.
Given the impacts of COVID-19, it is recommended that the Commission suspend merit increases for FY
2020/21.
The Commission is required to publicly and separately adopt a salary range table as a part of the budget
approval process. This method ensures clarity and public disclosure. Commission policy applies an annual
COLA to the salary range table. The COLA is predicated on the percentage change in the Consumer Price
Index-All Urban Wage Earners, covering the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, for the 12-month period
ending December 31, rounded to the nearest half a percent, with a maximum adjustment of 4 percent.
The COLA is not automatically applied to current employees’ salaries, and typically employees earn salary
increases only through the Commission’s performance management process. Given the impacts of COVID-
19, it is recommended that the Commission suspend the salary range COLA adjustment for FY 2020/21.
Summary of 2020 Classification Study
In February 2020, Koff & Associates conducted a classification study for select classifications in various
departments at the Commission. An agency-wide compensation study was conducted in 2018, the results
of which are still valid with no base salary modifications recommended.
When positions are classified, the focus is on assigned job duties and the job-related requirements for
successful performance, not on individual employee capabilities or volume of work performed. Positions
are thus evaluated and classified on the basis of such factors as the nature and level of work performed,
the complexity of the work, the authority delegated to make decisions and take action, the responsibility
for the work of others and/or for budgeted expenditures, contacts with others (both inside and outside
of the organization), the impact of the position on the organization, and the knowledge, skills, and abilities
required to perform the work. Employees working “out-of-class” must be reclassified and compensated
accordingly or remain in classification with workload reassigned. Given the Commission’s minimal staffing
levels, reassignment of workload or hiring additional staff to accommodate workload are not practical or
cost effective options.
The classification study on the Management Analyst positions in the Planning & Programming, Multimodal
Services and Commuter/Motorist Assistance departments and the Clerk of the Board position identified
that the expanding job descriptions warranted a position reclassification and a position upgrade for the
incumbents in those positions. Specifically, for the Clerk of the Board position, incumbent is performing
2
Agenda Item 5
management duties for the IT program, administration, and related operations which are not reflected in
the current Clerk of the Board job classification.
Staff requests approval of these reclassifications, the position of Administrative Services Manager/Clerk
of the Board, along with the revised organizational chart and salary range table, in preparation for the FY
2020/21 budget process. Drafts of the job descriptions for all of these positions are included with this
staff report.
