1792 r Office of the County Manager October 17, 2016 To: Board of Commissioners From: County Management and Human Resources Subject: Pay Plan Salary Tables The County Manager's Office, along with the Human Resource Department, is currently updating the Personnel Ordinance. Various updates and changes will be brought before the Board in the fall. This month, one issue is being presented to the Board - the pay plan salary tables. The Pay Plan Salary Tables: The second issue is Article III. The Pay Plan. The entire pay plan refers to half percent increments regarding salary increases as well as the cost of living allowance. The personnel system works off of salary tables maintained within our financial software system. The tables were established with a' /2 percent increment difference between each level. Over the past 18 years, computer rounding has resulted in the tables drifting away from the 1 /2 percent difference between each level. The original hourly wage that built the tables started out with approximately 8 plus decimal points. We are requesting the table be corrected and the hourly wage be reduced down to two decimal points. Employees' salaries would be adjusted to the new table rates. Differences in the proposed versus current employee salaries can vary based on the new tables from a loss of $40 to an increase of a little over $1,000 annually per employee. For the employees with a loss in their annual salary, we propose to make a onetime payout of the lost difference in annual salary to the employee until their next evaluation if merit is received, they will be advanced forward to a new salary step. The total cost for FY2016 is approximately $103,000. 65 Church Street SE (28025) • P.O.
