Consideration and Discussion of Annual Salary/Wage Review for 2016 in Accordance with SCCO § 13.29.

This action provides ongoing maintenance and relevance to the wage matrix, and includes all employees except the sworn unit.  Discussed percentage versus flat rate; a flat amount will not allow competitive wages at the higher end of the wage matrix.  Discussed compression issues that could arise.  Not about individual people but about the market and how to equitably maintain the matrix.  The step increase system is utilized to set goals and reward, or in some cases not reward, performance.  Step increases range between 2.25% and 2.5%.  Fordham noted the amount the County can afford should be considered by looking at what services are provided and how, with a commitment to maintaining high quality staff. 

 

Motion by Lombard, second by Fordham to forward to the County Board a 0.5% increase to the non-represented wages scale for 2016.  Bychinski-Aye, Czuprynko-Aye, Fordham-Aye, Krueger-Aye, Lombard-Aye.  Personnel Committee:  Dent-Aye, Held-Aye, Lombard-Aye, T Meister-Aye, Netzinger-Aye. Motion carried.

 

Motion by Netzinger, second by Lombard to adjourn the meeting.  Motion carried.

 

Respectfully submitted,
