what does incremental pay increases mean
Employees who receive annual increases in their pay typically receive a percentage increase. This increase is sometimes referred to as a salary increment. This percentage adds to the employee's existing base salary.For example, when management approves a 3 percent raise for all sales employees, each employee's salary is increased by 3 percent.ne-time increments are typically paid out during a single pay period. For example, a school district that decides to pay its teachers an increment of 2 percent might distribute it during the sixth pay period of the year.
