Criteria for Employees to Qualify for Premium Pay. The following criteria are set out as the basis upon which individuals and employee groups may receive premium pay or the equivalent. The City's compensation program is designed to ensure that employees have the potential of a salary which is internally justified, reflects the value of the job in the marketplace, and generally provides step increases based on satisfactory or better job performance until the maximum is reached. The Premium Pay Plan provides for the recognition of significant 1-time contributions occurring no more than 1 year prior to the application. The examples provided are for illustration purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the opportunities.
