Net Pay $1,087.01 $1,117.62
Flat % COLA
Pros– Easier to plan for annual budgeting– Gives all employees a wage increase
Cons– Too many reclassification requests because current grids
don’t match area market pay ranges– 7 year lag to market would not be corrected– Percentage amounts on some grids are off and vary from
class and levels; flat percentage would add to problem
WIS Recommendation
Pros– Market is attainable at 5 years– Updated wages would help with retention and recruitment– Longevity steps reduced
Administrative and budgetary savings(fewer steps to administer and max would be 3% above market)
Cons– Tricky transition of grids when done in stages– Possibly discourages those with long-term service– Salary freezes in short-term for some employees
