[NCASG] [External] Re: Legislation for Reoccurring Salary Adjustments

Arkansas stopped giving cost of living adjustments in 2017.  Arkansas moved to a performance-based system of merit increases to base salary.  The average increase has been about 2.2% annually, but for individual employees, the increase has been as high as 7.5%.

Good morning,

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania does not provide market-based increases. Our basic pay structures that cover most employees are not designed to provide increases based on changes in the market or a comparison to the market.

Kim,
For North Dakota, we do not have any such recurring adjustments.  In theory, our legislatively approved salary increases are all performance based.  At times in the past we have also granted equity adjustments that have been market based and/or based on position within the salary range.  We rarely make adjustments that are directly linked to cost of living, though we have provided some supplemental pay for jobs in areas where the market has been impacted by the oil industry.

That said, we may be making some recommendations for equity adjustments in our legislative session next year.

Hi all -

I sent out the following survey last week. I've received several responses and I appreciate the information I have been able to receive so far. I did want to send a follow-up question to ensure I'm not missing any responses from states who might do annual increases that are not necessarily considered cost of living adjustments.

Do any of you have legislation (other than what has been shared already) or a standard process that helps to determine market based increases each year? For example, team members making less than their market rate would receive a certain increase, while those team members paid at or above market might receive a lesser increase or no increase at all.

Thanks again.

Subject: Legislation for Reoccurring Salary Adjustments

Good morning -

A few years ago, the State of Missouri moved from stepped salary ranges and 850+ job classifications down to ~450 job classifications and stepless salary ranges. Following this, we have attempted to maintain our salary structures as minimum wage adjustments, cost of living increases, economic indicator data, and appropriations have fluctuated. In order to work towards a potential solution, we are asking for your state's feedback on the below item.

Does your state have any legislation in effect that requires cost of living adjustments (or similar) on a reoccurring basis? If so, could you please share the statute related to that with us?

Thanks in advance!
