Common use of CLASSIFICATION PAY Clause in Contracts

CLASSIFICATION PAY. 1. The Board agrees that if any employee is requested by his/her immediate supervisor to and does perform work that normally is performed by an employee in a higher paid classification that such employee shall receive the rate of pay normally paid in the higher paid classification while he/she is working in that higher paid classification. The employee shall receive the higher rate of pay after the 5th consecutive day on the job retroactive to the first day. Classification pay will be paid at Step 1 of the higher classification pay rate or paid at the next step to provide an increase. Employees required to work at a lower classification shall not suffer a loss of pay as a result of working in a lower classification position. 2. Any such assignment shall be for a period of time to perform work vacated by absence of a regular employee or in the event the request is to perform work of an employee on vacation, it shall be for the duration of the vacation or absence. 3. An employee may not elect to perform work in another classification when scheduled to be performing his/her contracted job (i.e., the employee may not take an extra assignment that conflicts with his/her regular job). 4. An employee who substitutes in another classification only gets substitute pay.
