Common use of Salary after Promotion or Demotion Clause in Contracts

Salary after Promotion or Demotion. When an employee is moved from one classification to a classification with a higher maximum salary (promotion), the employee shall be appointed at the minimum step of the salary range in the new classification; provided, however, that the employee receives a minimum five percent increase in salary upon such promotion, not to exceed the maximum salary step of the new classification. When an employee is moved from one classification to a classification with a lower maximum salary (demotion), the employee’s salary shall be adjusted to the salary prescribed for the classification to which the employee is demoted. The employee shall be placed at the step of the salary range prescribed for such lower classification that most nearly approximates the salary the employee was receiving; provided, however, that such salary does not exceed the maximum rate for such lower classification. This paragraph shall not apply when an employee has been rejected during a promotion probationary period; rather, such an employee shall be placed at the same step the employee was placed prior to the promotion.
