The Dean shall determine the positions which comprise the competitive level in which employees shall compete with each other for retention.
Assignment to a competitive level shall be based upon the employee's position of record for which the employee receives pay.
A competitive level shall consist of all positions in a work unit with the same title and grade level. Positions which have different titles but which are at the same grade level and which have similar functions and responsibilities, and which would require minimal training or orientation for an employee to assume the duties of the differently titled position, may be included in the same competitive level.
