What is the difference between changing the grade assigned to a classification and changing the pay schedule?
Either option can be an appropriate method to adjust a pay system, depending on the needs of the employer. The pay schedule for all three state universities is essentially the same, though the exact dollar amounts for the minimums and maximums may vary. In particular, the grade midpoints, which are critical pay target points, are exactly the same. A major overhaul of the pay schedule would require consensus from all three universities and the Arizona Board of Regents. For this reason, it is more effective and efficient for the University of Arizona to use the existing schedule and re-grade classifications.
