2022 Commission Accomplishments and Comments
The Commission has a number of defined responsibilities as stated in the Civil Service Rules and Regulations. The Commission continues to adopt, amend and repeal rules for the Civil Service Commission, advises the City Manager on problems concerning personnel administration, hear appeals of dismissals, demotions, or reductions by any person in competitive service, investigate complaints or concerns affecting the administration of the system and provide an annual report.
Over the past year, the Commission reviewed and monitored numerous employee eligibility lists for diversity, gender, and ranking. Additionally, the Commission reviewed and adopted each department’s annual report that outlines the department’s progress in reaching equal employment goals.
The Commission did not make any changes to the Civil Service Rules during the 2022 calendar year.
The Commission continues to schedule and hold employee Appeals on an “as needed” basis. During 2022, no appeals were filed.
The Commission also continues to hold Public Hearings from time to time. One Public Hearing was held in 2022, as follows:
To amend the classification specification for Fire Fighter Engineer for the Stockton Fire Department.
The Commission would like to focus on two goals in 2023.
Goal 1, review all rules and regulations to ensure they are relevant, up to date, and meet the needs of the City. The Commission will work with the Human Resources Department to review and revise rules and regulations where necessary.
Goal 2, create a diverse workforce that is reflective of the City’s population. Through annual reports, the Commission will monitor each Department’s progress over the year regarding hiring practices, training, and diversity to assure that all employees are treated according to the Civil Service Rules and Regulations. The Commission will actively engage the department representative in attendance by asking probative questions or requesting examples of progress.
