WAGE PRACTICES. GENERAL 31.01 Part I shows the composition of the wage zones. Part II of Wage Rates and Progressions in this Article shows the top basic weekly wage rate for each occupational classification, by wage zone, and the reference number of the applicable wage progression table. Part III shows the wage progression tables. Part IV shows the Pension bands for each occupational classification. Part V shows the monthly Pension benefit for each Pension band. 31.02 Each Wage Progression Table consists of columns of Intervals in months and Rates of Pay for each applicable Wage Zone. The normal interval for increase consideration in months, is shown opposite the basic weekly wage to which it applies. Thus the normal increase treatment for any employee is determined by locating his basic weekly rate on the appropriate table. 31.03 When an employee’s rate on entry into an occupational classification is between rates shown on the table, the employee normally will be increased to the next higher rate on the table in a period of time which is the same proportion to a full interval as the amount of increase is to a full progression step.

In either event, the employee shall receive credit for any amount earned since his last progression increase under Section 31.11 of this Article. 31.04 Progression under each table ceases with attainment of the applicable top rate. 31.05 The effective date of a normal wage progression increase shall be the first day of the payroll week in which the specified interval ends. If this date falls within a period of absence exceeding seven (7) calendar days, the date the employee’s return to duty shall be the effective date, but the date determined in the first sentence shall be used as the date from which the interval for the next increase will be measured. 31.06 The number of days by which any period of continuous absence exceeds thirty (30) days shall be added to the normal time interval specified for wage progression. 31.07 Part-time employees will be given the same increase treatment as full-time employees except that the amount of wage increase shall be in proportion to the number of hours worked. 31.08 When an employee is permanently transferred, without change in occupational classification, from one location to a...
