ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
This level of Office Services Clerk involves routine work which is
moderately complex in nature, and which allows the position incumbent to choose the most appropriate procedure to follow in order to
complete an assignment. Supervision is available to assist on work not clearly covered by standard procedures and functional supervision is
typically provided to clerical support personnel. Although this classification is at the same level of a Secretary II, not enough of the
traditional secretarial duties are expected of position incumbents to warrant a classification in the secretarial hierarchy. This
classification is located in a School, College, Division or Center/Institute of the University and the specific work performed may vary
considerably among those assigned to this classification. This classification reports to and receives work direction from a professional or
management level position.
