What should a facility include as part of its correctional officer salary costs?
Salary information provided on the SCAAP application SHOULD NOT include benefits or overtime. However, if overtime costs are a fixed expense included in a salary package and/or included in a facilities budgetary process (as per contractual agreement), they can be included as part of a facility’s correctional officer salary costs. Correctional officer salary costs may include premium pay for specialized service (eg. bilingual officers), shift differential pay, and fixed pay increases for time-in-service.
