<p class="x_MsoNormal">Hi Kevin,</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">We do not have geographic differentials, but we do have other pay options when recruiting and retention are a concern. Two commonly used options include Special Entrance Rates and Premium Pay. Special Entrance Rates are a rate above the
minimum rate, but serve as a “new minimum” in that all new hires are paid at the SER. Premium Pay is an hourly amount in addition to the base salary. Please let me know if I may be of further assistance?</p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Does your state offer geographic differentials (aka location-based salary) to law enforcement officers (including correctional officers)? If so, please describe how the pay rates for geographic areas are determined. For example, are
pay rates tied to the cost of living in the applicable area or are higher pay scales offered for less desirable locations.</p>
