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.

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
