Section 284.206 - Special adjustments to pay
Current through September 16, 2024
1. The Division of Human Resource Management may approve a special adjustment to the pay of an employee pursuant to this section. A request for a special adjustment to pay may be initiated by an employee, the appointing authority or the Division of Human Resource Management. A special adjustment to pay does not constitute a promotion.
2. An employee may receive a special adjustment to pay equivalent to 5 percent of the employee's base rate of pay during any period in which:
If an adjustment to pay is granted pursuant to this paragraph, the adjustment begins when the employee starts conducting the training program and ends when the training program is completed. An adjustment will not be granted if the duty to conduct training is clearly set forth in the class specification. Informal orientation given to new employees will not be considered for this special adjustment.
The adjustment to pay pursuant to this paragraph will be granted only if such duties are not provided for in the class specification.
3. An employee may receive a special adjustment to pay if he or she occupies a position in which the duties have been recognized through the classification process as being at a higher level, but who does not meet the minimum qualifications for the class. The special adjustment to the employee's pay must be equivalent to 2.5 percent of the employee's base rate of pay if the employee performs duties classified one grade higher than his or her current position, or 5 percent of the employee's base rate of pay if the employee performs duties classified two or more grades higher than his or her current position. A special adjustment to an employee's pay made pursuant to this subsection may continue in effect from the date on which the position questionnaire is received:
4. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (a) of subsection 2, any special adjustment to pay made pursuant to subsection 2 must be revoked when the conditions justifying it cease to exist.
5. Except as otherwise provided in this section, the effective date of a special adjustment to pay is the date on which the written request is received by the Division of Human Resource Management or the personnel office of the agency at which the employee who is receiving the special adjustment to pay is employed. If the request for the special adjustment to pay is delayed because an administrative or clerical error prevented its delivery, the effective date of the special adjustment to pay must be determined by the appointing authority and must be based on the date on which the request should reasonably have been submitted. A retroactive adjustment to pay must not exceed 6 months from the date on which the Division of Human Resource Management receives the written request.
