Upon approval to telecommute, OGS D&C employees may telecommute up to 4 days per pay period.

This position is graded and offers a salary range from the hiring rate to the job rate for its designated grade. All hires begin at “Start Rate” unless prior state experience affords eligibility for hiring step increase as determined by OSC.
