There are separate compensation rules for each group of employees. Benefits and other deductions also vary by groups. \\files1\working_groups\erp_wg\vendor scripts\hrs demo script.docxpage 4
A. Demonstrate how your solution handles multiple pay systems (e.g. classified employees are paid based on pay grades and steps; unclassified employees are paid individual rates, most student employees are paid minimum wage with an increase on their anniversary date, etc.). B. Demonstrate how your solution would address the following (University Support Staff salary increase): A classified Facilities Specialist is paid on pay grade 21. The beginning rate is $15.03 per hour based on the first step of the pay matrix. This job class also gets $.30 per hour trades retention incentive which is not included in the pay matrix. The employee receives a 2% increase. The 2% increase is calculated on the hourly rate + $1000 longevity (e.g. $15.03 * 2080 + 1000 = $32,262.40 * 2% = $32,907.65 / 2080 = $15.82). C.
