Section 19-3418. SALARY INCREASE

 

3418.1An employee occupying a permanent position who has not reached the maximum step of pay in his/her salary schedule, is entitled to the next higher rate of pay in the salary schedule provided:

 

(a)The employee has completed the required waiting period;

 

(b)The employee has performed at an acceptable level of competence based on the most recent performance rating; and

 

(c)The employee has not received an equivalent increase during that period.

 

3418.2Subject to the availability of funds, the Commission may grant a quality increase in salary equal to the next higher step in the salary schedule of an employee occupying a permanent position who substantially exceeds normal requirements in the most important functions (duties) of his/her job.  Not more than one quality increase may be granted to the same employee during any 52-week period.  Quality increases are in addition to within-grade step increases.  Therefore, an employee who receives a quality increase does not thereby begin a new waiting period to meet the time requirements for a next within-grade step increase.

 

3418.3The Personnel Office shall determine which employees are covered by the overtime provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act. The Executive Director or his/her designee(s) shall approve all overtime work.

 

3418.4The Executive Director or his/her designee shall grant compensatory time accrual and leave to employees who are exempted from the Fair Labor Standards Act overtime provisions.
