Position Classification Code (PCLS Code)
The PCLS is used to identify if a position is exempt or non-exempt as defined by the
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Some classification include an alternate PCLS that
reflects positions that may be classified as either exempt or non-exempt based on
specific duties.
Job Families are evaluated using the Hay Evaluation System which focuses on three universal factors when reviewing position classifications:
(1) Know-how,
(2) Problem Solving, and
(3) Accountability
Each Job Family has a career progression, linking each level within a Job Family to a corresponding salary grade.
