Chris,
I was chuckling to myself as I read your posting. I pretty much guessed
where you were going. It brought back memories from a previous life.
The company I worked for years ago, also went through a job
reclassification. It was handled by an outside firm using whatever
magical job classification scheme they had. They never talked to me or
my supervisor about what I did – or what he did. I don’t think it would
have made much difference; at that time we both had jobs which were less
common back them. I was classified as a Librarian. My supervisor, who
was the compliance attorney, was also in some weird, off the wall
category. We both had a laugh about it and then went to work to rectify
the situations.
I did as much research as I could regarding the position of a Records
Manager and pointed out how different my job responsibilities were from
those of a librarian. What it pointed out to the outside firm was all
jobs couldn’t be pigeon holed into their predefined list of occupations.
There were going to be exceptions. and my position was one of them!
My suggestion? Do what you said you are doing. Check the List Archives
for discussions on job classifications. Document what you do and how it
relates to Records Management – not Human Resources.
Good Luck.
