ANALYSIS OF CLASSIFIED SALARIES
This section of the report provides an overview of where actual salaries for classified employees fall within their respective pay ranges. The classified pay structure includes a set of pay ranges for each of the six occupational pay schedules. Each pay range consists of a minimum and a maximum salary. An employee typically starts at the minimum of the pay range and, over a career, progresses toward the maximum. The following graph provides an illustration of the distribution of classified employees within their respective pay ranges as of January 1, 2025. Approximately 73.1% of classified employees are paid at a rate between the minimums and the midpoints of their respective pay ranges, which is considered below market.
Distribution of Classified Workforce in Pay Ranges 2025
The Market Adjustment rule is the primary means by which an employee’s pay progresses through the pay range assigned to the job. The rule was designed to move an employee’s pay to the midpoint of the pay range more quickly over time. Under this rule, eligible classified employees receive a base pay increase each year on July 15th. Employees with a rate of pay up to the midpoint of the pay range receive 4% each year and employees with a rate of pay over the midpoint receive 3% each year until the range maximum is reached.
