RESOLUTION #01-81

WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners authorized a Job Evaluation Study examining the total compensation and fringe benefits with internal and external comparisons for ICEA Court & County professional classifications to be conducted by O. William Rye and Company; and

WHEREAS, the adoption of this study will mean an increase in salary grade levels for certain classifications, red-lined status (positions to be downgraded when vacant) for others, and a new position title for some classifications.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Ingham County Board of Commissioners agrees to accept and implement this study effective September 9, 2000.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that employees in positions recommended for a salary increase will be placed at the step in the new grade which is at least equal to their salaries on September 8, 2000 with movement to the next step effective payroll period following their anniversary dates.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County will grant the same contractual increases on the old salary structure for those employees who are red-lined, and the red-lined employees will continue on that old salary structure until they vacate their current positions.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that any future reclassifications shall be through the negotiation process for a successor Agreement.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Controller be authorized to make the necessary adjustments for funding the salary increases pursuant to this study.
