If your position is upgraded, you cannot get back pay for the period of time your position was misclassified. (There is only one situation in which a classification action may be made effective retroactively and an employee be given back pay. This highlighted link will take you to an explanation of classification appeals, retroactive effective dates, and back pay.) You may not file a classification or job grading appeal electronically. |
