Appointment or Promotion. The point of entry for other youth or community workers on the appropriate scale shall be determined by the employer having regard to his/her previous experience and qualifications. Employers' decision on starting salary and on salary upon re-entry after a break in employment should be taken in the context on national advice and local policies on equal opportunities issues. On appointment or promotion to another post with a higher salary maximum a youth or community worker shall be placed on the new scale at a point no less than one incremental point higher than that which he/she was receiving on the day of appointment or promotion. Those employers whose policy is to pay more than one increment on promotion should continue their local practice.
