Assigning Competitive Level Codes Utilizing Master CLC Book

3/20/2013

Step One

• Start by going to FASCLASS or Word document and read/review the PD

• Verify title, series, general format is correct. – If new PD data is incorrect,

work with organization to correct and/or prepare advisory*

– If existing PD data is incorrect, work with organization to correct, update title, etc. * Follow CHRA 511-11-GM-01 Processing Personnel Actions under Delegated Classification Authority dtd 3/24/2011 or

511-12-GM-02 Processing Personnel Actions When Classification Authority is Delegated to the CPAC, dtd 8/6/2012.

Step Two• Check for special

requirements, such as driver’s license, engineering or acquisition certification requirements, etc.– Note (1): Focus on those

mandatory requirements that are always required versus those that state they are optional, i.e., “May be…”

– Note (2): These may be found as part of the position title, in duty description, in Factor 1-Knowledge or “special conditions of employment”

Step Three

• After reviewing PD, create four digit competitive level code

• First digit (page 1 of Master CLC book)– Example: PD# FR 00625 is a

non-supervisory, non-lead, non-emergency essential position so first digit is ‘0’ (zero).

0

Step Four

• Second/third digit– Go to specific series in Master

CLC book– Example: PD# FR 02265 is a

0203, Human Resources Assistant (Military)

– Select correct comp level. In example, assignment is ‘00B0’

– You now have the first 3 digits of the CLC for this PD.

0 0 B

Step Five

• Fourth digit (last page of Master CLC book)

determines general occupational skills that can be found across multiple occupations.– Example PD# FR 02265. Based

on review, does pd require office automation duties, i.e., a qualified typist? If yes, select ‘000C’.

– Note: If PD does not have OA currently in title but should, you must work with the organization as a title change is required. If no, then leave fourth digit blank or zero ‘0’.

0 0 B 0

Completion

Based on your review of the PD and the Master CLC book, you have constructed the 4 digit competitive level code.

0 0 B 0

In example, PD# FR 02265 new CLC is ’00B0’.

You are now ready to look at the next PD!

Question

• What if no existing comp level code is appropriate for my PD? Assignment of CLCs to the Master CLC book is controlled by CHRA-HQ staff. Provide the proposed new comp level definition along with the applicable PD or PDs to your Regional Class Proponent for review. The Proponent will work with CHRA-HQ staff to determine if a new CLC is required or an existing one can be used. CHRA-HQ will publish updates on an as needed basis to the website.
