Managers: Compensation and Salary Ranges
Philosophy | Legislative Intent | Range Structure | Range Tables | Increase History
2009-2011 Legislative Intent
General Increases
- Salary adjustments are to vary based on documented performance and equity and are not necessarily to be 5 percent increases across the board.
- Effective July 2009 (paid August 1) and July 2010 (paid August 1).
- Appropriation is 5% each year of the biennium.
- No salary increase if overall documented performance does not meet standards.
- Minimum monthly increase of $100 each year if performance meets all standards (pro-rated for less than full time).
- Probationary employees are not entitled to the general increase; however, the increase may be given on July 1 or upon completion of probation at the discretion of the appointing authority.
- No increase (other than minimum $100 or a temporary increase) during the biennium if salary exceeds or would exceed assigned salary range maximum.
Market Equity Pool Distribution
- For state employees in executive branch agencies, excluding entities under the state board of higher education.
- Independent of general salary increase.
- Effective July 2009 (paid August 1).
- Must be given after the July 1 general increase.
- Prioritized based on a statewide plan to address occupational market disparities, economic growth areas, recruitment and retention challenges, and internal and external pay inequities for employees critical to the agency mission, as well as length of service and salary range position.
- Probationary employees are eligible.
- Employee performance must meet standards.
- HRMS provides a model base plan and agencies may adopt the model plan, adopt the model plan with exceptions, or offer an alternative plan that meets legislative intent.
- OMB will transfer appropriation authority from statewide equity pool to each agency based on accepted plan.
