JOINT RESOLUTIONS

No. 29
(House Joint Resolution No. 58)
A House Joint Resolution concerning

Committee to Study of State Employee Classifications

FOR the purpose of requesting the Legislative Policy Committee to
appoint a Committee to study State employee classifications
in order to establish a competent and efficient work force
by providing for greater upward mobility in positions;
removal of traditional job barriers, and more educational
and training opportunities for employees that the Governor
direct the
Department of Personnel to develop a plan of
action to implement
recommendations of the Governor's
Commission on Compensation and Personnel Policies, that the
Governor provide the plan of action to the Legislative
Policy Committee by a certain date, and that the Legislative
Policy Committee establish a Committee to advise the
Secretary of Personnel in the implementation of the
recommendations
; and generally relating to a study of State
employee classifications.

and pay an average of 20 percent less than positions

traditionally staffed by men; and

WHEREAS, This condition results in both the underutilization
of talented employees and a massive drain of talented women leads
to the loss of competent individuals
from State employment; and

WHEREAS, After several years of studying the issue of
upgrading and reformulating certain classifications the

Department of Personnel has failed to reach a definitive

conclusion or to recommend a remedy; and Governor's Commission on
Compensation and Personnel Policies has recommended and the
Governor has concurred in a plan of action to address this
matter; and

WHEREAS, The State cannot afford to leave this problem
unresolved and needs to develop a competent and efficient work
force by recruiting women and men into nontraditional positions,
creating "career ladders" or "bridging positions" and further the
education and training opportunities and other applicable
programs
for all employees as it relates to implementing these
concerns;
now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF MARYLAND, That the
Governor direct the Department of Personnel to develop a detailed
