Promotion Policy. A. It shall be the policy of Broward County to encourage promotion from within, whenever feasible, consistent with qualified staffing and affirmative action goals, free of political considerations, nepotism or other forms of unlawful favoritism or discrimination. Promotional appointments shall not be grievable except in cases where the grieving party(s) can substantiate that one of the above considerations resulted in such appointment . If the grieving party(s) pursues the grievance to arbitration and fails to prevail, the full expenses of the arbitrator shall be borne by the grieving party(s). The amount of salary increase granted upon promotion shall be 7.5% within range or the minimum of the salary range for that new job classification, whichever is greater. However, the appointing authority shall have the ability to grant a promotional increase greater than 7.5% provided it is within the employee’s new salary range.
