Merit Review Date. An employee’s merit review date is the first day of the pay period following the date of hire, except that those employees hired on the first day of the pay period shall have their date of hire as their merit review date. If an employee is promoted to a new position which results in a salary increase of five percent (5%) or more, then a new merit review date will be established for that employee on the same basis as shown above for new employees. If an employee accepts a position or is demoted to a position that results in a salary decrease of five percent (5%) or more, a new merit review date will be established on the same basis as shown above for new employees. The advancement of an employee from a new hire “trainee” status to regular employee shall not be considered a promotion and will not establish a new merit review date. The date used to establish the merit review date is known as the anniversary date. All changes in salary shall be effective at the beginning of the next scheduled pay period.
