Lateral Move. If an employee moves laterally (i.e., to a new position that is evaluated in the same range or grade as the position the employee is leaving), the employee will be placed in the new title but will remain at the same salary, unless the department determines that an in-range/grade adjustment is appropriate and approved in accordance with Section V.
Lateral Move. When an employee is moved laterally from one salary schedule or job title to another, in a pay grade which has approximately the same midpoint (a midpoint difference of less than one (1) percent), the employee shall retain the current base rate of pay, provided the current base rate of pay is equal to or between the pay grade minimum and maximum. If the employee's current base rate of pay exceeds the new pay grade maximum, it will be reduced to the new pay grade maximum on the effective date of the lateral move.
Lateral Move. With respect to lateral movement within the same job classification the senior applicant within the job classification will be awarded the position, without an interview or testing, provided the employee demonstrates that he/she has the qualifications and ability to perform the required work. Job Classification shall mean the job title that the employee is currently occupying.
