DISTINQUISHING CHARACTERISTICS Collection Systems Maintenance Worker I : This is the entry-level classification in the Collection Systems Maintenance Worker class series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents learn and perform routine duties in collection systems, and sewage lift station maintenance, , repair, and operations. As experience is gained, assignments become more varied, complex, and difficult; close supervision and frequent review of work lessen as an incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Collection Systems Maintenance Worker II level but are not expected to function at the same skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise. Collection Systems Maintenance Worker II: This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the Collection Systems Maintenance Worker class series.

This class is distinguished from the Collection Systems Maintenance Worker III in that the latter performs the more complex work assigned to the series and/or provides technical and functional direction over lower-level staff. Positions in the Collection Systems Maintenance Worker class series are flexibly staffed; positions at the II-level are normally filled by advancement from the I-level. Progression to the II-level is dependent on satisfactory work performance (an overall performance rating of “exceeds standards” or higher on most recent annual performance evaluation is required), the incumbent meeting the minimum qualifications for the classification including any licenses and certifications, and management approval.
