Employees in this class will be eligible to progress after one year of service by noncompetitive promotion to the classification of Utilities Control Center Operator II. Promotion is accomplished after successful completion of on-the-job training, achievement of successful performance evaluation, and completing initial City probation. An incumbent who fails to complete the training and noncompetitive, criteria-based promotion within two years of hire may be transferred, demoted, or terminated. This class is FLSA nonexempt.
