| Pay Changes Effective June 14, 2009
Pending approval of the Executive Directive, the following pay
actions will occur for positions and/or employees on the Classified
Pay Plan.
Minimum Wage
Due to federal changes to the minimum wage, pay grades 005 and 006
will be removed from the Classified Pay Plan effective June 14,
2009. Job Classes on grade 005 (Seasonal Worker and Foster Grandparent
(State)) will move to grade 007; those on grade 006 (Seasonal Worker
Senior and Lifeguard) will move to grade 008. Employees whose current
hourly rate is below step 4 of the new grade will move to the new
step 4. All others will move to a new step whose hourly rate is
the same as the hourly rate on their current grade (in other words,
with no increase).
Pay Grade Changes For Market Adjustments
The Legislature authorized pay grade changes and/or step increases
for specified job classes in the classified service effective June
14, 2009. A list of the affected classifications and adjustment
amounts is available at: http://www.da.ks.gov/newpayplans/2010marketadjustments.pdf
The increases will be implemented through pay grade change and
step increase(s); pay grade change and employee moves step-to-step;
or step increase(s) only with no grade change. The details will
be available in an upcoming Executive Directive.
The Divisions of Personnel Services and Information Systems and
Communication are developing a method to process these changes in
SHARP for the positions and employees. We will send another message
with implementation details as soon as possible.
This update will not include Regents Institutions. These agencies
will process their own employees.
