DENIAL OF MERIT INCREASE. If, in the appointing authority's judgment, the employee's performance does not warrant a merit increase upon meeting the time requirements of Section 311, the Agency/Department Head may deny the increase and must complete the County performance evaluation rating form. Any time prior to the employee qualifying for his next merit increase, the employee may request a review of his merit increase by the appointing authority, or the appointing authority, by his own initiative, may review the matter. If the appointing authority concurs with the requested review or if the appointing authority independently initiates his own review, then the appointing authority shall reopen the matter by submitting another performance rating and recommendation. If an employee's merit increase is granted prior to completing at least 2,080 hours of compensable service after it was denied, that employee's next merit increase shall not be due until the employee has completed at least an additional 2,080 hours of compensable service.
