How are increases in salary, other than legislative increases, given to state employees?
A salary increase can be given for either the reallocation of a position or the approval of an in-range salary adjustment. A reallocation occurs when the specific duties and responsibilities of a position have increased so that factors such as complexity, variety, scope, and decision-making are now at a greater level. The additional duties are analyzed and the overall position is compared to other positions with similar duties. If the overall role of the position is equivalent to positions with higher salary grades, then the position will most likely be reallocated to the same salary grade. Salary increases can also occur through in-range salary adjustments. These increases are generally given for additional duties which are not strong enough to reallocate the position to a higher level. They can also be given to resolve internal equity problems or to reduce the turnover rates within specific classifications. No more than a 10% in-range salary adjustment can be given within a 12-month
