sta ff will not contact personally each
employee for in most cases sufficient
data to establish classification will al
ready be available. This does not mean,
however, that those employees who are
interviewed have failed to fill out their
questionnaire properly. S ta ff members
may also make a spot check o f a few
positions in a tentative class to make
sure that the proper allocation o f posi
tions has been made.
When these steps have been complet
ed, tentative written specifications or
descriptions will be prepared for each
class o f positions and submitted to de
partments for review by supervisors
and employees. A t this time suggestions
regarding additional classes, abolishment
o f classes or change in content of class
specifications will be received by the
classification staff. When this review
has been completed, the necessary revi
sions will be made and the classification
plan will be submitted to the Civil Ser
vice Commission for its review.
When the classification plan has been
approved, a list of position allocations
will be sent to each department head
and each employee will receive a noti
fication as to his position allocation.
Alabama Employees Under
Retirement Plan
D uring the 1945 session o f the A la
bama legislature, recently adjourned, a
bill was passed providing a retirement
system for state employees which will
become effective October 1. The plan
provides for the deduction o f 3% per
cent of employees’ salaries, to be match
ed by state funds to build up credits
from which an annuity and pension will
be paid each employee upon retirement.
A n employee may voluntarily retire at
60 years of age but it is obligatory that
he retire when he becomes 70. The
amount o f prior service for which credit
is to be given is a maximum of twelve
years..
A move to repeal the state civil ser
vice law during the legislative session
was unsuccessful when a bill to accom
plish this died in committee.
