Reclassification

Request a reclassification for an employee if their duties and responsibilities have changed substantially due to changes in organization, work, staffing requirements, or technology.

Use this form to request a reclassification for:

  •     Labor-represented employees
  •     Civil Service employees
  •     P&A employees in a job family
  •     Note: The Modify Appointment TDX form should be used for all other employee groups.

Additionally, there are a few exceptions. If you are trying to request a reclassification that doesn't require review from OHR Compensation and Classification, please use the Modify form. If you have questions regarding which form should be used, consult with your campus/college/unit HR.

To get started

Before requesting a reclassification for an employee, you will need to have all necessary forms and supporting documents with required signatures completed. Instructions and forms can be found on the OHR Job Classification website. 

If the employee will be changing Employee Class/Group as a result of the reclassification, Central Payroll will receive an email notification upon approval of the reclassification. For example, you no longer need to email Payroll if your employee moves from a Civil Service position to a Professional & Administrative position. The Operations team will do this upon receiving a TDX ticket request for this change.

Avoid entering private data into your TDX request, including comments or attachments.
