Advancement Within Salary Range. Salary increases (i.e., advancement to higher steps within the salary range) will be granted to regular full-time and regular part-time employees on the basis of individual performance. Generally, employees will progress to the next higher step upon completion of one year of employment, excluding unpaid leave, in which the employee has demonstrated at least satisfactory performance in all areas (meeting job standards) and upon recommendation of the employee's supervisor. The increase will become effective the first day of the pay period following completion of one year worked. Prior to each employee's anniversary date and annually thereafter until the employee reaches the maximum salary step of the salary range, the Court Executive Officer or designee shall schedule a performance evaluation with the employee eligible for a merit salary increase. I f the salary increase is granted, the Court Executive Officer or designee shall notify the proper payroll personnel to ensure the salary increase is timely processed. Should an employee's anniversary date be inadvertently overlooked and the employee was otherwise entitled to the increase, the employee shall receive retroactive pay to the date the increase would have been effective had the error not occurred.
