COMPETENCE INCREMENT Sample Clauses

COMPETENCE INCREMENT. In order to guarantee a sufficient minimum salary, each Orchestra Member shall be paid competence increments on the basis of seniority and completed degrees or qualifications as follows: 1st professional competence increment after 2 years of joining the job group, 2% of the work-specific salary component; 2nd increment after 4 years, 5%; 3rd incre- ment after 7 years, 3%; 4th increment after 10 years, 7%. Periods of employment taken into account when calculating seniority for profes- sional competence increments for an Orchestra Member shall include employment relationships after his or her 17th birthday, which have been in a field or in a job that may be considered of direct relevance to his or her work in the Opera Orches- tra, and in which the working hours have totalled at least 20 hours per week. Education and training shall be taken into account as equivalent to seniority as follows: 2 years shall be added for a degree completed at the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki or a university of applied sciences or a degree or qualification completed abroad, for which the National Agency for Education has issued a decision of equivalence and recognition, and 1 year shall be added for a completed A-level or diploma examination in the instrument that the Orches- tra Member plays in the Orchestra. Other previous experience may be similarly taken into account on a case-by-case basis. If an Orchestra Member’s qualifications exceed the job demand level of his or her work, this may be compensated for with a discretionary personal professional com- petence bonus. Discretionary personal professional competence bonuses shall be harmonised with seniority-based professional competence increments as follows: the 1st dis- cretionary bonus shall be considered the 4th professional competence increment as if earned in advance; the 2nd shall be considered the 3rd, the 3rd the 2nd, and the 4th the 1st professional competence increment. The shop xxxxxxx shall be entitled to submit proposals for the granting of discre- tionary personal professional competence bonuses to Orchestra Members. The amount of personal bonuses shall be reviewed as the Orchestra Members’ qualifications change.
