New York Codes, Rules and Regulations › Title 9 - EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT › Subtitle C - Division of the Budget › Part 147 - Performance Advances And Performance Awards For Managerial/confidential Employees › Section 147.3 - Performance evaluation

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
(a) Annual
				salaried employees covered by this Part are evaluated annually with evaluations
				due on July 1st. Employees will have a formal rating assigned at each
				evaluation.
(b) An employee must be
				on the payroll for a minimum of six pay periods during the annual evaluation
				period to be eligible for a rating. An employee with fewer than six pay periods
				of creditable service shall not be formally evaluated. Otherwise eligible
				employees with six or more pay periods but fewer than 24 pay periods of
				creditable service shall receive partial advances as follows: 18 through 23 pay
				periods, three fourths of an advance amount; 12 through 17 pay periods, one
				half of the advance amount; and 6 through 11 pay periods, one fourth of the
				advance amount. Employees must have 20 pay periods of creditable service to be
				eligible for performance awards, which will not be prorated. Any complete pay
				period during which an employee is on leave, without pay or in less than full
				pay status, shall not be creditable toward the service requirement. Education
				directors, as defined in section 136  of the Civil Service Law, being paid over
				10 months will receive credit for a full year of continuous service if they
				were on the payroll for 10 months. Their service and eligibility will be
				calculated proportionately for periods when they were not paid between
				September 1st and June 30th.
(c) An
				employee on leave with or without pay at the time the evaluation is due, who
				has six or more pay periods of creditable service, shall be evaluated. Any
				salary increase resulting from a performance advance or longevity performance
				award shall be paid upon the employee's return to the payroll. Any resulting
				lump sum performance award or merit payment shall be paid in a timely manner
				regardless of whether the employee has returned to the payroll. Employees who
				are separated from State service on July 1st, and are subsequently reinstated,
				who had six or more pay periods of creditable service prior to separation, will
				have their salary adjusted upon return to the payroll. In making this
				adjustment, a rating of "Effective" or its equivalent will be used.
(d) For the evaluations due July 1, 1986, the
				evaluation period shall be the period between the due date of the previous
				evaluation and July 1, 1986. Advance payments shall be prorated as described in
				subdivision (b) of this section, but full performance awards shall be paid to
				those employees last evaluated October 1, 1985 who have 15 subsequent pay
				periods of creditable service. Employees last rated July 1, 1985 will still
				require 20 pay periods of creditable service to be eligible for an
				award.
(e)
(1) Service in a lower grade in a position
				which has been reallocated is creditable toward the service requirement in the
				grade to which the position has been reallocated for any performance evaluation
				or payment due on or after July 1, 1986.
(2) Service in a higher grade by employees
				who are appointed or demoted to a lower salary grade is creditable toward the
				service requirement for a performance evaluation in the lower salary
				grade.
