Subsection .650: Employment - Demotion of Current Employee

 

200.650 Employment - Involuntary Demotion

      Circumstances under which an employee’s position classification and salary range may be reduced include but are not limited to a change in position duties requiring a downward reclassification and transfer of an employee to a different position of a lower classification at the same or at a different location due to reorganization or reduction in force.

      1.   An employee so demoted retains regular employment status and is not required to serve an orientation/introductory period.

      2.   If an employee is being compensated at a rate of pay higher than the top step of the salary range for the reclassified or new position, the employee’s salary will be frozen at that level until the salary level for that position has increased to an amount greater than the existing salary.
