Market Study. During mid-term of a contract, a market study may be requested by the Bargaining Unit or the City if there is reason to believe that a classification or position may not be compensated at a market competitive rate. A significant issue in retention, recruitment, or significant disparity with the relevant market will constitute reason for a study. A disparity of 5% or less will not ordinarily result in any change. The result of any market study that indicates more than 5% disparity is subject to negotiations with the bargaining unit.
