Promotional Step Placement Clause Samples
The Promotional Step Placement clause defines how and when an employee may advance to a higher pay grade or step within an organization, typically as a result of a promotion. This clause outlines the criteria for eligibility, such as performance reviews or time in current position, and specifies the effective date and new compensation level upon promotion. Its core practical function is to ensure a transparent and consistent process for salary adjustments following promotions, thereby reducing disputes and clarifying expectations for both employees and management.
Promotional Step Placement. Any employee whose assignment is changed to a position in a classification with a higher salary range shall advance to the step in the new salary range that provides at least a five percent (5%) salary increase over his/her previous scheduled salary. Employees shall receive an additional step placement increment for every full year of service completed as an out-of-class assignment in the promotional classification. However, no employee may advance higher than the maximum step in the new salary range.
Promotional Step Placement. A member of the unit who is permanently assigned to a classification at a higher range will be placed on the lowest step that will result in an increase of at least five percent (5%). If no step will result in an increase of five percent (5%), the employee will be placed on the highest step of the new range.
