<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all! If your state did not already respond, we would love to hear if your state uses pay range quartiles – or something similar – where pay on appointment and within-range pay progression is affected by an employee’s position within
the pay range. I’m sorry this message is being re-sent to those who have already responded.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The two questions asked in the original email are as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Do you utilize a pay range quartile system with within-range pay progression for at least a significant number of your state employees? For example, do you have pay ranges divided into four sections, with
flexible pay on appointment up some point in the pay range, and employees receive periodic pay adjustments based on performance and position in the pay range?<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="2" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">If you have a quartile (or very similar) system, and the pay range structure is increased by some amount or percentage, do all employees within the pay range typically receive the structure increase, in
addition to periodic pay progression adjustments?<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you do have a pay range quartile system (or something substantially similar), can you provide a contact we can reach out to for more information?<o:p></o:p></p>
