Progression. All increases authorized by this Section shall be effective at the start of the pay period nearest to the employee's anniversary date. Employees may receive a one (1) step salary increase annually on their anniversary date provided satisfactory performance is indicated by their Appointing Authority and the employee’s salary does not exceed the salary range maximum rate. With written notice to the employee, Appointing Authorities may withhold such step increases because performance standards have not been met or only marginally attained. Increases so withheld may subsequently be granted upon certification by the Appointing Authority that the employee has achieved a satisfactory level of performance. If an Appointing Authority fails to give the employee written notice, prior to the employee’s anniversary date, that a step increase is to be withheld because of less than satisfactory performance, the increase shall be granted. The substantive judgment of the employee’s supervisor regarding their performance is not grievable/arbitrable; however, the withholding of a step increase is grievable/arbitrable.
