PLACENTIA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: October 7, 2025
Submitted by: Alice Burnett
From: Human Resources
Subject:

Receive and File the Citywide Classification Specification and Compensation Study and Adopt a Resolution Approving the Classification Plan.

Financial Impact:

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact to receive and file the report or adopt the classification plan.

Summary:

The last comprehensive Classification Specification and Compensation Study for the City was completed in 2008. Since then, there have been significant changes in the labor market, job responsibilities, and compensation trends. To ensure that the City's compensation and classification structures remain competitive and equitable, a new study was completed this year.

The City engaged MGT of America Consulting, LLC (MGT) to conduct a comprehensive Classification and Compensation Study for all City positions. The study reviewed current job data, duties, and minimum qualifications to ensure classifications accurately reflect the work performed. The study included market salary surveys, recommendations for job titles and updated job descriptions, as well as recommendations for revised salary ranges reflecting results of external and internal relationship analysis. An overall written report with recommendations and best practice guidance for policies and procedures for developing and maintaining a position allocation and compensation plan is attached for your review.

Recommendation:

Recommended Action: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Receive and file the findings of the Citywide Classification and Compensation Study conducted by MGT of America Consulting, LLC (MGT); and

2. Approve Resolution No. R-2025-51, adopting the updated Classification Plan in accordance with Personnel Rules and Regulations, Rule II I, Section 2 — Classification:

Adoption, Amendment, and Revision of the Plan.

Strategic Plan Statement:

This item is consistent with the City Council approved Five Year Strategic Plan, Goal 7:

Enhance Employee Development, specifically Objective 7.4: Initiate class and comp study. 20 Discussion:

On June 4, 2024, the City entered into a professional services agreement with MGT for a citywide classification and compensation study. As part of the study, compensation and benefits data were collected from eight (8) peer entities for City and Police personnel and from twelve (12) peer entities for sworn Fire personnel. In total, 131 job classifications were reviewed and updated. Of these classifications, fifty percent (50%) were compared to the peer compensation market. Findings indicate that five (5) job classifications are above the market median, thirteen (13) are at the median, and forty-six (46) are below the median. Two (2) classifications had insufficient comparable matches for analysis.

Personnel Rules and Regulations, Rule I I I, Section 2 — Classification: Adoption, Amendment, and Revision of the Plan provides:
"The classification plan shall be adopted and may be amended from time to time by resolution of the City Council".

The complete full-time Classification Plan is attached. Once adopted, any subsequent amendments to the plan must also be submitted to the City Council for review and approval.

While the study included compensation recommendations, the City does not currently have sufficient funding to implement comprehensive compensation adjustments. However, the compensation analysis was considered during the meet -and confer process with labor groups for the 2025-2027 budget years.

Several positions were addressed and adjusted during the last quarter of the 2024-25 budget and through the adoption of the FY 2025-26 budget. Additional proposed adjustments are included in the First Quarter Fiscal Year Report being presented to City Council on this same date.

A classification plan and salary recommendations for part-time, non-benefitted positions are not included in this action. Part-time classifications will be presented to the City Council in November for adoption in connection with the 2026 Minimum wage increase.

Fiscal Impact Summary:

There is no fiscal impact to receive and file the report or adopt the classification plan.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
MGT Consulting Group is pleased to present its report on the classification and compensation review of job classes and benefits for 131 classifications in the City of Placentia. Placentia, located in northern Orange County, California, is a thriving suburban community situated approximately 35 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles. Known for its strong sense of community and commitment to preserving its rich heritage, Placentia has earned recognition as a "Pleasant Place to Live." The city's roots date back to the late 1800s and are deeply tied to Southern California's agricultural history, especially in citrus production. Major transportation routes such as State Route 57 (Orange Freeway) and State Route 91 (Riverside Freeway) provide convenient access to the greater Los Angeles and Orange County regions. As of the 2020 Census, Placentia had a population of 51,824 residents.

Placentia agreed to review classification job descriptions, conduct a market survey and benefits. MGT would conduct a market analysis on approximately 50% of selected benchmark positions.

Job descriptions were reviewed and updated based on input from the job content questionnaires (JCQ), supervisor interviews and recommendations from MGT Consulting Group.

The classification portion of the study included 131 job descriptions for review. Supervisors provided feedback on specific job descriptions for Placentia to consider, resulting in the creation of new or amended job descriptions. The suggested final draft job descriptions were delivered under separate cover, in track change format, and as a PDF final draft version.

The compensation portion of this report presents findings and recommendations from the survey of benchmark job classes, providing an external comparison for a cross-section of the various job families. The data point used for comparison is the mid -range of the midpoint for each job surveyed. If a job at Placentia is within 5% above or below the market midpoint, in the case of the methodology of this study, the salary is within the midpoint band. Any job paid more than 5% above the midpoint percentile at mid -range is reported as "above" the midpoint band. Placentia jobs paid at more than 5% below the midpoint percentile band at mid -range are reported as "below" the midpoint band. Placentia may wish to consider adjusting the range in these cases.

The findings and recommendations of the wage survey of 50% of selected benchmark job classes found 3 positions were above the market median, 13 positions are at market median, 42 are below the market median, and 2 had insufficient matches. If the City is experiencing recruitment and retention issues, it may consider adjusting the rates to address the recruitment and retention of highly qualified employees.

Each table in this report contains the data for Placentia, the average, and the market median.

Recommendations address the relative relationship of Placentia's wages to the mathematical band from 5% above and below the market midpoint.

INTRODUCTION
In August 2024, Placentia contracted with MGT Consulting Group, to conduct a classification review of job titles, benefits analysis and a compensation review based on 59 identified benchmark jobs.

The project established the following goals:
• Conduct Initial Meeting and Finalize Project Work Plan. • Implement a Communications Strategy; Hold Orientation Sessions. • Review Existing Data and the Existing Compensation System. • Gather Employee Input and Job Data for Analysis.
• Identify Recruitment Market(s) & Conduct Market Surveys. • Gather Data and Conduct Benefits Comparisons.
• Evaluate and Benchmark Positions; Establish Pathways. • Update Job Descriptions as Needed.
• Conduct Market Review & Develop Compensation System.
• Develop Cost Estimates & Implementation Strategies.
• Prepare & Submit Draft & Final Reports.
• Conduct Project Management Activities.

SCOPE OF STUDY
Placentia asked MGT Consulting Group to review job class descriptions and selected 59 benchmark positions for market survey analysis. To accomplish the goals of the study, MGT Consulting Group undertook the following tasks:
• Conducted meetings with the Human Resources Team to discuss goals and objectives of the study; to confirm the scope of the study, the work plan, the selection of comparison agencies for external salary data collection; and to manage the study calendar and timeline. • Reviewed applicable City of Placentia documents, including policies, regulations, salary schedules and existing job descriptions.
• Distributed a job content survey to all employees; analyzed questionnaires that were returned. • Conducted virtual interviews with a cross-section of supervisors as needed for clarification. • Presented draft job descriptions to the HR Team for review and discussion of class concepts and work described.
• Reviewed the draft job description revisions with Human Resources and department directors for their feedback and input.
• Drafted final job descriptions for review, discussion, and action.

INCUMBENT/SUPERVISOR INTERVIEWS
Between December 2024 and January 2025, employees and/or supervisors were interviewed by a Consultant from MGT based on gathering additional information regarding job content questionnaires MGT City of Placentia • September 23, 2025

31 (JCQs) and supervisor comments. Supervisors were also given an opportunity to review the draft job descriptions and provide input. Comments from employees and supervisors were used to guide the final draft recommendations presented to Placentia under separate cover. Below is a list of employees/supervisors who were interviewed to obtain additional information: regarding the position:

DATA REVIEWED AND WAGE COMPENSATION SURVEY
Each job has a classification review component and a wage rate comparison component. The classification review has an extensive data -gathering process, including input from the incumbents and their supervisors. From that data, MGT Consulting prepares updated job class descriptions, which are subject to a final review by supervisors and the Human Resources Department. The descriptions were then finalized and provided to the Human Resources Team. Revised job descriptions were provided under separate cover.

The data collected from comparison organizations included correct matching of similar jobs at the entities identified by Placentia. Data was gathered through online research. The minimum wage and maximum wage were derived from the current salary schedules of the comparison entities and calculating the mid -point values for the matched jobs. When a matching job was not identified in an entity, the entity without a comparable position was not included in the wage data table.

Salary data were collected from the following 8 peer entities:

Brea
Buena Park
Cypress
Fountain Valley
Fullerton
La Habra
Seal Beach
Tustin

Placentia selected 12 peer entities to compare positions within the Fire Department:

Brea
Coronado
Fountain Valley
Fullerton
La Verne
Loma Linda
Monrovia
Montclair
National City
Poway
San Gabriel
Santee
When evaluating the data collected, MGT Consulting Group recognizes the value of the midpoint as a stable comparison for assessing the market. This mid -data point reflects the competitive position of Placentia in the market.

The primary comparison data points used in this review are Step 1 and the Max Step of each Cities pay range (without "longevity"), and a calculated value at the mid -range, i.e., the calculated value between Step 1 and Maximum Step using the formula: (Step 1 + Max step) _ 2. Note that the peer comparison Cities do not have the same number of steps on their respective pay ranges. Regardless of the actual number of steps, the term "Max Step" refers to highest step on the range of each City without longevity.

The data are presented in table format for each of the jobs surveyed. The tables rank the Cities with matching jobs using the mid -range rate data point. Placentia is inserted into this ranking based on its mid -range value, though that value was not used in calculating the median values shown on the bottom rows of each table. The ranking tables include the matched job titles, the first step rate and the max step rate at each City, and the number of steps on the Cities range in the column "Max Step #." Findings and recommendations are summarized below the table for each of the jobs surveyed. For this survey, if the wage of a job at Placentia is within 5% above or below the midpoint, that is considered "at the midpoint." A wage outside that narrow band is regarded as above or below the midpoint.

From a strategic standpoint in the current recruitment climate, when employers face difficulties recruiting enough qualified candidates to fill vacancies, it may be necessary to pay more aggressively than at the midpoint. This is especially true for critical jobs experiencing recruitment and retention difficulties.

Conversely, as pressure mounts to increase wage rates to overcome recruitment challenges, it is essential to monitor potential wage compression, which can adversely affect the retention of the current workforce.

If the need to raise wage rates presents a challenge to the budget, one solution could be smaller incremental adjustments over a specified time for jobs experiencing high turnover and/or low M GT City of Placentia • September 23, 2025

application rates. For example, jobs that are below midpoint, Placentia would become at midpoint by implementing an initial increase for the most critical job classes (and other closely allied jobs). A smaller percentage increase could be established for other jobs where warranted. In an ongoing effort to achieve a strategic level of competitive wages, the parties may conduct market surveys more frequently. Other structural approaches could be adding steps and eliminating lower steps to move the salary structure into a more competitive position.

86 CLASSIFICATION CREATION AND RECLASSIFICATION
Organizations treat the development of new classifications and reclassifications in several ways.

Classification creation or reclassification may occur when the work being performed undergoes significant changes over time, new technology is introduced, or an organization's goal is altered in response to evolving service requirements or laws. The need for a new or revised classification can also occur when organizational demands or job duties change through design or evolution.

Classification creation and reclassifications are typically initiated through Human Resources but may also be initiated at the request of an individual or their supervisor. If an individual or supervisor initiates a request for creation or reclassification, it is usually accompanied by written supporting documentation. Reclassification should also consider other positions within the overall classification system and should not be determined independently of these positions and without consideration to the department and organizational hierarchy.

When a reclassification or new classification request is received or initiated by Human Resources, a Job Content Questionnaire (JCQ), or other authorized survey document to understand an employees' job duties and requirements, should be completed by the supervisor and/or all incumbents holding the same job title, as applicable. Key questions concerning the job should be answered to assist in determining the proper level within the overall pay and classification system. For reclassifications, the position audit results should be compared to the current position description for the various classification levels to determine the correct classification assignment.

If it is determined that a creation or reclassification is justified, Human Resources should notify and make a recommendation to the Superintendent for approval/authorization of the change. Current employees in reclassified positions should either maintain their current salary or be adjusted to a salary in the assigned pay grade for the reclassified position per organizational policy. Reclassification is not considered the same as a demotion, and therefore, an employee's salary should either be maintained at its present level or increased according to the reclassified position's pay grade and organizational policy for moving employees along the pay line of their pay grade. If the reclassified position's pay grade indicates a lower salary, the current employee's salary should be maintained and adjusted over time per organizational policy and not be reduced due to reclassification. This may mean that the employee's salary is temporarily frozen at its present level until movement in the assigned pay grade is allowed per an organization's longevity and merit policies.

87 JOB ANALYSIS
Job analysis is the systematic process of gathering, documenting, and analyzing information about a job, including its duties, responsibilities, qualifications, and working conditions. An important concept in job analysis is that the job, not the person doing the job, is assessed, even though some job analysis data may be collected from incumbents. Job analysis aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of a position's requirements, facilitating effective HR functions such as recruitment, performance appraisal, and training. The outcomes typically include job descriptions that serve as a foundation for various personnel management activities.

Job analysis should be performed when:
• A new job is created.
• An existing job has changed significantly due to additional or changes in core duties or qualifications, organizational restructuring, advancements in technology that impact the job function, or to meet legal requirements.
• There is a need to clarify the job duties, responsibilities, and expectations for current or potential employees.
• There is a need to design or revise human resources activities, such as recruitment, selection, training and development programs, performance evaluation system creation or updates, and compensation system updates, to ensure these activities are aligned with job requirements and organizational goals.

It is imperative that jobs be titled accurately to industry standards and that their job descriptions be written properly and accurately to best reflect the function and requirements of the position. Job descriptions influence critical decisions, such as candidate selection, pay, training, and career pathways.

A job analysis does not include:
• A review of an employee's performance
• How well tasks are performed
• How much work is performed
• When an employee is eligible for a promotion
• A salary reduction
Job analysis commonly includes the following process steps:

1. Define the purpose and scope of the job analysis.

Clearly outline the purpose of the job analysis, such as for recruitment, performance evaluation, training, or other HR purposes. Identify the specific job(s) to be analyzed based on their importance and impact on organizational goals.

2. Conduct job data collection through job description review, interviews, or surveys.

Choose a data collection method that suits the organization's resources and needs. Conduct structured interviews or surveys with employees performing the job, supervisors, and other M GUF City of Placentia • September 23, 2025

relevant stakeholders. Ask about key job elements such as tasks, responsibilities, skills, and qualifications. Compile the collected data into a concise format.

3. Review and validate the job data collected.

Validate the job information by seeking feedback from employees and supervisors. Ensure that the documented information accurately reflects the actual requirements of the job. Address any discrepancies or gather additional information if needed.

4. Create or update job descriptions.

Develop or update job descriptions to be clear and comprehensive based on the analyzed data.

Include key information such as job title, duties, qualifications, and reporting relationships.

Ensure that the job descriptions align with the organization's goals and provide a solid foundation for HR functions.

Job data are often collected through questionnaires/surveys, direct observation, interviews, job shadowing, and work time studies (logs). The most effective technique when collecting information for a job analysis is to obtain information through questionnaires/surveys, and/or interviews with incumbents and leadership. The information collected from the questionnaire is reviewed to make distinctions about job duties, roles, and responsibilities to determine if positions are accurately titled, FLSA designation, and to inform pay analyses and adjustments, if any.

Some Human Resource departments use the information collected in the job analysis to assist them in other areas of Human Capital.

Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards affecting employees in the private sector and in Federal, State, and local governments. Covered non-exempt workers are entitled to a minimum wage of not less than $7.25 per hour effective July 24, 2009. Overtime pay is defined at a rate not less than one and one-half times the regular rate of pay after 40 hours of work in a workweek. Employees will be advised of their exemption status at the time of hire (e.g., via their offer letter) or at the time of promotion or transfer if any change in their current position occurs.

All employees are classified as non-exempt or exempt according to the following:

A. Non -Exempt Status
Non-exempt employees are employees whose job positions do not meet Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) exemption tests, and who are not exempt from minimum wage and overtime pay requirements. Non-exempt employees are eligible to receive overtime pay for hours worked in excess of 40 hours in a given workweek.

B. Exempt Status
Exempt employees are employees whose job assignments meet specific tests established by the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and state law and who are exempt from minimum wage and/or overtime pay requirements. Employees performing exempt work are paid on a salary basis and receive a predetermined amount of pay each pay period. Exempt employees are expected to fulfill the duties of their positions regardless of the hours worked. Exempt employees do not receive premium overtime, straight overtime, or compensatory time for working more than 40 hours in a work week.

Human Resources should conduct FLSA reviews when new positions are created, when positions are merged or split, or when the scope of a position changes. All final FLSA determinations and changes should be made by Human Resources and communicated to affected employees.
