Interpretation of class descriptions

Class descriptions represent the duties typical of the class. Neither an appointing authority nor an employee may interpret class descriptions as restrictive, except for the specified minimum qualification requirements. The inclusion of particular phrases in the descriptions that list the duties performed may not be interpreted to exclude other duties of a similar kind and quality. An appointing authority may, at any time, require an employee to perform any of the duties that are in the class descriptions or any other appropriate duties.
