I. MOVEMENT OF EMPLOYEES WITHOUT PROMOTIONAL PROCEDURES, TO A RESTRUCTURED TITLE SERIES

1. This section applies to employee movement, without promotional procedures, to a restructured title series.

2. Employees who have moved to a restructured title series without promotional procedures, shall retain their current total salary, except as provided below. Employees slotted into a new range will be placed on the highest step in the new range that does not exceed their total current salary. That portion above the amount otherwise indicated for his/her new step shall be referred to as “extra.”

a. An employee whose current salary falls below step 1 in the new range of the title series will receive a salary increase in an amount necessary to place them on step 1 and an anniversary date set in accordance with the effective date of the restructured title.

3. Anniversary dates for these employees will be set by one of the following methods:

a. Employees assigned to steps 1 through 7 in their new range, who have not received a performance increase or performance lump sum award in the 12 month period preceding the reassignment, will be awarded the next incremental step and assigned an anniversary date in accordance with the effective date of the reassignment.

b. Employees assigned to steps 1 through 7 in their new range, who have received a performance lump sum payment or a performance increase within the 12 month period preceding the reassignment, will be assigned an anniversary date one year from the effective date of the lump sum payment or performance increase.

c. Employees who are assigned step 8, 9, or 10 in the new salary range will have their new anniversary date adjusted based on their last performance increase.

4. Employees may be advanced to the next incremental step on the anniversary date determined in 3 above in accordance with the provisions of the current Salary Regulation for the Employee Relations Group to which the employee has been reassigned, provided their performance was at least satisfactory or successful. Resulting salary increases shall be only in the amount necessary to bring each employee’s total current salary to the rate specified for the next incremental step.
