- EMPLOYEES COVERED - This salary regulation
applies to all employees in titles assigned to Employee Relations
Groups V, W, and Y, and those employees in all other Employee
Relations Groups who are designated confidential pursuant to
the New Jersey Employer-Employee Relations Act, N.J.S.A. 34:13A-3,
or other statutory authority.
- EXCEPTIONS - Upon notice to the Commissioner,
Department of Personnel and the Director, Division of Budget
and Accounting, an appointing authority may deny automatic increases
and/or increments to its employees. Subsequent approval of these
actions may be submitted by a department head through an individual
personnel transaction.
- ADJUSTMENTS TO COMPENSATION SCHEDULES -
For those Employee Relations Groups where there is a change in
base salary, titles will be assigned to new salary ranges as
follows:
- Compensation schedules will be increased
by the amount indicated on " Attachment A " for the affected Employee Relations Group.
- The employee's new salary will be that step of the new
salary schedule that the employee held in the old salary
schedule.
- Employees at rates of pay between steps of the range
and employees assigned to titles having no range or rate,
including trainee and single rate titles, will receive
the increases indicated on " Attachment
A ".
- Employees at rates of pay beyond the maximum, except
as provided by the Commissioner, Department of Personnel,
and the Director, Division of Budget and Accounting, shall
remain at that rate unless the new range maximum meets
or exceeds that rate, in which case the employee shall
be placed on step 9.
- Anniversary dates will not change as a result of application
of this section.
- INCREMENTS - The salary of an employee whose
performance is at least satisfactory under a 2-tier pass/fail
system; successful under 5-tier rating system; or commendable
under the 3-tier rating system will be advanced to the next incremental
step in his or her salary range on his or her anniversary date
during Fiscal Year 2004 provided, however:
- An employee who will attain the eighth step of the salary
range will be assigned an anniversary date reflecting the
pay period and year in which he or she attains the eighth
step.
- The employee may not receive a salary increment to the
ninth step of his or her salary range until he or she has
been at the eighth step for 39 pay periods.
- SALARY ADJUSTMENTS FOR NO-RANGE TITLES -
The salary of an employee whose title is not assigned a range
or rate may be increased by up to 5% of his or her June 27, 2003
salary, as long as the employee's performance is at least satisfactory
or successful.
- The salary increase may only be effective 12 months or
more after the employee's last increase which was not a
result of an across-the-board salary increase program.
- The appointing authority must submit an individual personnel
action to grant the salary increase.
- SALARY LIMITATIONS -
There are limitations upon the salaries which may result from
these increases.
- An employee's base salary may not exceed $100,700. Any
increase above $100,700 will be reviewed on a case by case
basis, submitted on a DPF-77 and should be limited to only
those situations which demonstrate extraordinary justification
and compelling need.
- DURATION - This salary
program will be in effect, unless superseded, through Fiscal
Year 2004 only.
