Guidelines for Requesting Managerial Designation for
Positions
In order to be designated
"managerial", a manager must have significant responsibilities for formulating
or administering policies and programs. Typically, MSP level managers and MSO's
or equivalent heads of departments will meet the definition. However, an MSP
level classification is not automatically designated managerial. For example, a
P/A IV who is a project leader directing systems analysis and programming, but
who does not manage a department with respect to formulating policies and
programs, would not be designated as a managerial employee. The job description
should reflect the following responsibilities:
- Responsible for overall
operation of the department or work unit, including the formulation and
administration of policies and/or programs pertaining to it.
- Authorizes the expenditure of
University funds.
- Regularly attends management
meetings where routine subjects of discussion are financial issues, including
budget planning, ongoing and existing procedures, programs and policies, and
personnel and labor relations matters.
- Makes decisions on behalf of department or work unit, or has a central role in
the process of formulating management decisions.
The Compensation unit of campus Human Resources will review
requests for managerial designation and make a final decision as to
whether or not the position qualifies. Once managerial
designation is obtained the employee's HEERA code in PPS may be
updated to reflect the designation.
