Missouri Code of State Regulations › Title 1 - OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATION › Division 20 - Personnel Advisory Board and Division of Personnel › Chapter 2 - Classification and Pay Plans › Section 1 CSR 20-2.020 - The Pay Plan

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: This amendment revises this rule pursuant to
				  changes to Chapter 36, RSMo made by Senate Bill 1007 (2018).
(1) Effect of Amendments, Revisions, and
				Additions. When amendments or revisions to the pay plan are effective, rates of
				pay of employees are adjusted in the amended scale comparable to the prior
				scale. A lesser adjustment may be specifically requested and justified by an
				appointing authority and approved by the director. This approval is conditioned
				upon uniformity of treatment for all employees of a division of service. When a
				new or revised class of positions is established in the classification plan,
				the director recommends for approval of the board an appropriate pay range
				within the pay plan.
(2)
				Administration. The implementation and ongoing administration of the pay plan
				will be conducted in a manner which promotes efficient and effective practice
				of personnel administration.
The pay plan will be administered in accordance with the
				  following provisions:
(A) Salary
				Advancements. Salary advancements within the pay range for the class occupied
				by an employee are of three (3) types: probationary salary advancements,
				specific salary advancements authorized during a fiscal year, and discretionary
				salary advancements, administered in accordance with the following provisions:
1. A probationary salary advancement of up to
				four percent (4%) is permitted for an employee upon successful completion of
				the original probationary period. As used in this paragraph, successful
				completion means the granting of regular employee status to a probationary
				employee, rather than the evaluation attained in the performance appraisal. An
				appointing authority may grant a probationary salary advancement of up to four
				percent (4%) following successful completion of a promotional probationary
				period or completion of six (6) months of service following upward
				reclassification;
2. Within-grade,
				market progression, or other specific salary advancements which are only
				authorized during a fiscal year when specific funding has been appropriated for
				all agencies. When such funding is approved and appropriated by the
				legislature, the Personnel Advisory Board will issue guidelines and
				instructions for implementation of these provisions. Within-grade, market
				progression, or other specific salary advancements may be for varying amounts
				or percentages within the range for the class, and may be based on length of
				total state service, performance appraisal, time in class, relative market
				position within the range, or any combination of these or other
				factors;
3. Discretionary salary
				advancements may be granted by an appointing authority as warranted by the
				needs of the service; and
4. The
				probationary salary advancement and the specific salary advancement authorized
				during a fiscal year as described in paragraphs (2)(A)1. and 2. will be given
				to eligible employees to the extent that funds are available for implementation
				of these provisions. No employee can be denied a probationary salary
				advancement or specific salary advancement authorized during a fiscal year as
				described in paragraphs (2)(A)1. and 2. in order to provide a salary
				advancement to another employee authorized under paragraph (2)(A)3.;
