"Feasibility and Desirability of Enacting Legislation Establishing a Position Classification Plan for Law Enforcement Officers Whose Salary is Derived in Whole or in Part From State Funds"

The General Assembly, in 1975, passed House Joint Resolution No. 215 (attached). This resolution directed the State Compensation Board, with the assistance of the Division of Personnel, and all other agencies of the State cooperating, to make a careful and complete study of the above sub­ject. For purposes of this study the Compensation Board assumed that the "position classification plan" included the concept of a compensation plan. Thus, the position "Deputy Sheriff," because of differences in job duties, might have different compensation which would be dependent upon his job duties, such as Law Enforcement Deputy. Correctional Officer, or Courtroom Security Officer, notwithstanding action of the General Assembly, hereinafter set forth, making the compensation for such employees the same.
