Merit Appeals Board April 23, 2026 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />And so, we’re going to update that across all of our Clerk positions to re-title them to “Office <br />Assistant”—so nothing else is really changing, but I think Office Assistant will better reflect the <br />work that’s being done, and when we put those positions out for recruitment, I think we’re more <br />likely to maybe be able to get people going, “Oh, that’s actually what that role does”—so, even <br />things like that, bringing some of our job titles more current, so that people can better <br />understand what that role is. It's also something that Classification and Pay works on. <br /> <br />MR. THOMAS: Gilbert and Sullivan (inaudible) had a position called “Lord High Poohbah”—do <br />we have that? <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: Not yet, but I will request it. <br /> <br />MR. THOMAS: It’s you. <br /> <br />CHR. CABANAS: Are the typing certifications still required or is that a thing of the past? <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: For the most part, I think I believe that that’s a thing of the past, right— <br /> <br />CHR. CABANAS: It is. <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: Yeah. <br /> <br />CHR. CABANAS: Okay, you must be relieved. <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: Yeah. <br /> <br />MS. BOND: Workmen’s Comp. seems to be—I don’t know. It’s about the same as last—what <br />is it—the total claim is 250, but in here it’s 260 open workmen’s comp. claims? <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: Yeah. So, it would depend on when the information was— <br /> <br />MS. BOND: Yeah. <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: —pulled. Yeah. But the total number of open claims could vary for a few <br />different reasons. Sometimes we have to re-open a claim, just to pay an outstanding medical <br />bill, so it’s not necessarily like an open, active claim. We just are re-opening it to pay that bill. <br />There could’ve also been a few claims that we received after the Quarterly Report was <br />compiled, but before the monthly report information was compiled, which could account for the <br />discrepancy—I believe is ten, but— <br /> <br />MS. BOND: And it was mostly—the claims review held with Parks and Rec. to discuss their <br />open claims—are there a lot of open claims in Parks and Rec.? <br /> <br />MS. TOKIHIRO: I believe—I haven’t—I—it’s not that I haven’t seen the number, I’m not <br />recalling the number off the top of my head, at this time—but I believe it’s probably—it’s usually <br />been around 50 to, I think, at the high-end, it was 60 claims that they would have at any given <br />time. <br /> <br />MS. BOND: It’s like 20% of the—huh? <br /> <br />Page 17 <br /> <br /> <br />
