Each position in the service of the Commonwealth shall be allocated to the appropriate class title therein.
B. Establish and administer a compensation plan for all employees, and make such amendments thereto as may, from time to time, be necessary. The compensation plan shall be uniform; and for each class of positions there shall be set forth a minimum and a maximum rate of compensation and such intermediate rates as shall be considered necessary or equitable.

Employees hired in these positions shall be competitively recruited and selected and shall be covered under the state health insurance plan in § 2.1-20.1. Such employees shall not be entitled to receive benefits under the Virginia Retirement System (§ 51.1-124.1 et seq.) or the Workforce Transition Act of 1995 ( § 2.1-116.20 et seq.), nor may such employees grieve terminations resulting from the expiration of their terms of employment pursuant to Chapter 10.01 (§ 2.1-116.01 et seq.) of Title 2.1.
