Salary Placement Errors Sample Clauses

Salary Placement Errors. 1. If discovery of erroneous information causes the denial of a lateral salary advancement, a member shall have the option of being placed temporarily on the denied column if the District has given erroneous information to the member while working toward such an advancement. The temporary advancement will be allowed for a period not to exceed the then current school year. During this period the member must complete whatever coursework is required to make the salary placement proper. In the event the required coursework is not completed by the beginning of the next school year, the member will be moved back to the correct salary column and step, and must reimburse the District for any overpayment for the period of the temporary advancement. At the member’s option such reimbursement will be made in either a lump sum payment or by monthly payroll deductions not to exceed nine pay periods. 2. The burden of proving that erroneous information was provided by the District, as referred to in Article 120 C.1., rests with the affected member. Evidence of an earlier erroneous salary placement that is continued and affects the instant situation would meet this burden of proof. A member’s unsubstantiated allegation that verbal information received from the Human Resources Office led to the error would not sustain the member’s burden of proof. 3. A member who the District can show should have reasonably known about the error in salary placement in a timely manner and who elected not to bring it to the attention of the District will not be eligible for the temporary upgrade described in Article 120 C.1. 4. If a member is improperly placed on the salary schedule and the error is discovered before December 1, or within 60 days of employment or initial entitlement, whichever is later, the salary increase or decrease shall be made retroactive only to the start of the school year in which the error was discovered. 5. If a salary placement error is discovered after December 1, or more than 60 days after employment or initial entitlement, whichever is later, the salary increase or decrease shall be made from the date of the discovery. Neither the District nor the member will be required to reimburse the other for any back pay. 6. The initial responsibility for determining salary placement rests with the Human Resources Department.
