NORTH CAROLlNA 28401 ANDRE' R, MALLETTE PERSONNEL OFFICER PERSONNEL OFFICE NEW HANOVER COUNTY Telepl10ne (919) 343-0796 June 14, 1982 MEMORANDUM TO: Felix Cooper County Manager -- .,//-- FROM: I Andre I R. Mallette - :; l' ' Personnel Officer Ii i'------ RE: Revision to Pay Plan Policy and Classification and Pay Plan Study Attached are copies of the above referenced items. I am respect- fully requesting that these items be placed on the agenda for the Commis- sioners' meeting on June 21. 1982. As you are a\\'are, a meeting was held with department heads and supervisors to discuss the revised Pay Plan Policy. The policy submitted for approval reflects the input from those individuals on what I consider the critical part of the policy, namely Section 4, Item (b). Their input, when i,ncorporated in the final draft ,did nothing to weaken the intent of the policy. but thrust upon their shoulders, a greater res-ponsibility ,.;Then it comes to granting or denying merit increases. The copy of the Classification and Pay Plan ends many months of work with the State Department of Personnel. The plan that has been submitted reflects the proposals of the consultants and the changes recommended by the appeals committee. It is Iny opinion that the document submitted fulfills the original agreement entered into by the County and the Office of State Personnel. o If the Commissioners agree to approve both of these documents, I ask that the effective date of the Pay Plan Policy be June 22, 1982, and the effective date of the Classification and Pay Plan be July 6, 1982. ARM/jas Attachment (s) l ARTICLE III. THE PAY PLAN Sec. 1. Adoption The schedule of sa,lary ranges and class titles assigned to salary ranges. as set forth in Appendix B is hereby adopted as the pay plan for the County. Sec. 2. Hai.E.1tena~1ce of the Pay Plan The County Manager shall be responsible for the administration and maint- enance of the pay plan. The pay plan is intended to provide equitable compen- satlon for all classifications in the classification plan when considered in relationship to ranges of pay for other classifications, general rates of pay for similar employment in the private sector and in other public jurisdictions in the area, changes in the cost of living, financial condition of the County and other factors. To this end, the Personnel Director will from time to time make comparative studies of all factors affecting the level of salary ranges and \v:l.1l recommend to the Commissioners such changes in salary ranges as appears to be warranted. **Sec. 3. Salary Schedule The salary schedule shall consist of a series of salary ranges, each with twelve increments. There shall be a difference of two and one-half percent (2~%) between each increment, and five percent (5%) between each salary range. Sec. 4, Use of Salary Ranges Salary ranges are intended to furnish admi~istrative flexibility in recgg- nizing individual performance among employees holding positions in the same c1assi- fication by rewarding employees for meritorious service. The following general provisions will govern the granting of within-the-range pay increments: **(a) The minimum rate established for the class is the normal hiring rate, except in those cases where unusual circumstances appear to warrant appointment at a higher rate. Appointment above the minimum increment may be made when the department head determines that it is necessary in the best interest of the County. Above-- ( ,~. \ ARTICLE III - CONTINUED the-minimum appointments will be based on such factors as the qualifications of the applicant being higher than the desirable qualified applicants available at the minimum increment, and the refusal of qualified applicants to accept employment at the mini- mum increment. The Personnel Director shall have the authority to approve appointments made above the minimum increment of the range up to increment 4. Any appointment made past increment 4 will require approval of the County Manager. **(b) All salary increments will be based on meritorious service. All eligible employees may be granted merit increases in 2~%, 5%, or 7~% increments during the fiscal year. All such increases will be subject to the availability of funds budgeted to the department's Salary Increment account. Any increase over 5%, whether the result of cumulative increases during the fiscal year, or given at one time, will be subject to review and approval by the Personnel Department. A net., employee will be eligible for a merit increase only after he has completed at least six months of service. At that point, the employee will become eligible for merit increases up to 7~% for the fiscal year. All recommended merit increases for employees completing six months of service will be subject to review and approval by the Personnel Department. **(c) Each year in the preparation of the department's budget request, funds shall be included to provide merit increases for eligible employees. These funds will be computed using the following formula: (a) Fifty-five percent (55%) of the amount required to give all eligible employees a five percent salary increment. ** (d) All employees will receive at least one performance appraisal re- view during each fiscal year. Department heads are to consider all factors affecting employee performance and will submit their recom- mendations in writing, on the approved evaluation form, giving the reasons whether to advance or retain the employee at the same rate. (J **(e) An employee who receives a salary increase anytime during the fiscal year. as the result of a promotion or reclassification, will be eligi- ble for merit increases during that same fiscal year, based on the fo~lowing formula: Lateral move (0% increase)-eligible for 7~% increase during fiscal year _ 2~% increase-eligible for 5% increase during fiscal year 5% increase-eligible for 2~% increase during fiscal year 7~% or higher-not eligible for increase during fiscal year ARTICLE III ..: CONTiNUED Sec. 5. Payment at a Listed Rate All employees covered by the salary plan shall be paid at a listed rate within the salary range established for their representive job classifications, except for employees in a "trainee" status, or employees whose present salaries are above the established maximum rate following transition to a new pay plan. Sec. 6. ~a !~~!y_~_L..:~~!:.a:1. r~.s:. An applicant hired or an employee promoted to a position in a higher clas- sification, who does not meet all the established requirements of the position, may be appolnted at a rate, not to exceed five percent (5%). below the minimum established for the job. Upon written request and approval by the Personnel Director or County Manager, a trainee may be appointed at a rate lower than five .percent (5%). An employee will remain on the trainee level until the department head certifies that the trainee is qualified to assume full re- sponsibilities of the position and the Personnel Director or County Manager approves the certification. Sec. 7. !~_ Rates in Promotion, Demotion, Transfer and Reclassification (a) An employee who is promoted shall receive a one-increment pay ~.ncrease or an increase to the minimum increment of the new pay range, whichever is higher. (b) An employee \...ho 1s demoted to a position for whi,ch he is qualified shall have his salary set at the increment in the lower pay range which provides the smallest decrease in pay if the action is not for reasons of unsatisfactory performance or failure in personal conduct, or in the corresponding increment in the lower range if the action is a result of unsatisfactory performance or failure in personal conduct. (c) An employee who is transferred from a position in one class to a position in another class at the same pay range shall continue to be paid at the same increment rate. **(d) An employees whose position is reclassified to a classification having a higher salary range will be placed in the pay range with no change in annual salary. Except, employees whose present salary is less than the minimum of the new pay range. In that case, the em- ployee will be placed in the first increment of the new range. If the position is reclassified to a ~lassification in the same or lOvJer pay range. the employee shall be permitted to continue at his present rate of pay during his period of incumbency. If the position is reclassified to a Imoler pay range and the results is that,the employee will receive a rate of pay above the maximum increment ARTICLE III - CONTINUED established for the' new classification, that employee wil,l not be. eligible for merit pay adjustments until time as the employee either receives a promotion or benefits from a general classification-wide pay increase thereby bringing the employee's rate of pay at or below the maximum rate established for the classification. Sec. 8. ~ay Rates in the Salary Range Revisions \~hen the Commissioners approve a change in salary for the entire classifi- cation, employees \,,11ose positions are allocated to the classification may have their salaries raised or left unchanged. (a) *~n1en a classification of positions is assigned to a higher pay range, employees in that classification will receive an increase to the mini- mum increment of the new range, or to a higher increment if the employee's salary prior to the revision was greater than the minimum increment of the new classification. In the latter case, the employee's salary will be placed at a increment which at least equals his/her salary prior to the revision. (b) \Then a classification of positions is assigned to a lower pay range, the salaries of employees in that classification \<1i11 remain unchanged. If this classification to a lower pay range results in an employee be- ing paid at a rate above the maximum increment established for the new classification, that employee will be ineligible for merit pay adjust- ments until such time that the employee either receives a promotion or benefits from a general classification-wide pay increase and thereby bringing the employee's rate of pay at or below the maximum rate esta- blished for the classification. Sec. 9. .~~ for Part Time Work The pay plan established by this policy is for full time service. An employee appointed for less than full time service will be paid at the same hourly rate that has been established for a full time position in that classi- fication. Sec. 10. Overtime o o Overtime work shall be that work performed by an employee which exceeds the number of hours constituting the established payperiod. , Overtime opportunities will be distributed as equally as practicable among . ~ qualified employees in the same job classification. department and shift without regard to age, sex. race, color, creed, religion, national orgln or physical handicap'. Employees required to work overtime will be compensated with time off (0,\ ARTICLE IH - CO~T1N1JED - '. . within the same payperiod or paid for such overtime on the basis of one and one- half time the overtime hours worked provided that: (a) The ~ork is of an unusual, unscheduled or emergency nature and is directed by the department head or the authorized representative of the department head. (11) The position does not involve administrative, professional or managerial work excluded from entitlement to overtime compensation by the County Manager. i. (c) Department heads may with prior approval of the County Manager pay employees for overtime \vork vJhen it is not feasible to permit their absence fDr the purpose of taking compensatory time off. (d) The payment of overt~ne pay shall depend upon the availability of funds in salary and wages account of the department. See. 11. .Call Ba_ck Pay Any County employee eligible to receive overtime compensation under this policy wi.ll be gauranteed a m:i,nimum payment of two (2) hours wages for being called back to work outsidE' of normal vJOrking hours.
