Agenda Item

Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action on a policy exception for a new hire for Risk Management.

Background

Risk Management requests a policy exception on the newly created Risk Claims Administrator position (position number 2100) in order to successfully recruit an applicant with extensive experience as a Texas county workers' compensation (WC) claim administrator to facilitate the transition from a fully insured WC insurance program to a Williamson County self-funded WC program. The addition of an experienced individual with a directly relevant skill set is critical and necessary for the most optimal transition between programs, development of the new program, and the employee experience. This exception request seeks to keep the position grade at B.28, but with a salary of $80,000 in order to match the applicant's current pay. The position is funded through the Risk Fund (account 01.0840.0841) and, if approved, the salary increase will be transferred from the Risk Fund contingencies line.
