(a) The Commissioner of Administrative Services shall evaluate classifications in state service on a periodic basis of not less than five years to determine if the classification is in the appropriate compensation plan based upon appropriate and reasonably objective job-related criteria, excluding classes covered by § 5-198. Said objective, job-related criteria shall include but not be limited to: (1) Knowledge and skill required to carry out the duties of the position, (2) effort, both mental and physical, and (3) accountability. Evaluation committees which are representative of management and employees in the occupations being evaluated shall be formed for the purposes of this section. Utilizing the job evaluation system, the commissioner shall determine ratings for jobs through assignment of factor values. No modification of compensation shall be required by such ratings. Ratings may be a consideration in setting salaries, subject to the provisions of chapter 68 for classes included under collective bargaining.
