Department of Personnel<br />

On-Line Access to Job Class Specifications and<br />

Personnel Rules<br />

The Department of Personnel (DOP) had available the job class specifications<br />

and rules in an electronic <strong>for</strong>mat, but in order to access it, users had to download<br />

and install a massive computer help file, even if they only needed one document<br />

in the file. This process took from 7-40 minutes, depending on the computer<br />

system of the user. In order to have the most recent in<strong>for</strong>mation, the customer<br />

would have to use this time-consuming downloading process on a monthly basis.<br />

The project team converted the files to an Internet-friendly <strong>for</strong>mat and set up an<br />

interface so users can access the in<strong>for</strong>mation directly off DOP’s website.<br />

Customers can now access the specific document they need, rather than the<br />

entire file, and it now takes less than a minute to do so.<br />

<strong>Results</strong><br />

« The process is much easier and less time consuming.<br />

« There is more time available <strong>for</strong> DOP staff members to quickly respond to<br />

other customer requests.<br />

« Immediate savings of time and money on printing and mailing costs.<br />
