Retroactive Salary Rate Increases for Elevator Mechanics
|
Purpose |
To explain the agency procedures for reporting
rate increases and adjustments for "miscellaneous earnings."
|
Affected Employees |
CUNY employees in the title of
Elevator Mechanic. |
|
Background |
The rate increases are pursuant to the New York City Comptroller’s
Consent Determination dated June 30, 2006.
The new rates and other information are contained in a memorandum
from Carmelo Batista, Jr. dated July 13, 2006.
|
Effective Dates |
Rate increases are effective 2/24/03, 3/1/04 and
2/28/05.
Increases may be submitted in Pay Period 11C (Institution), paychecks
dated 8/31/06.
|
Agency Actions |
Reporting the Rate Increases
To increase the hourly rate(s), the agency must submit the following
requests regardless of the employee’s status:
- For all rate increases, request a Pay Change with
the Action/Reason of Pay Rate Chg/CRT (Pay Rate
Change/Change Rate) on the Job Action Request page, using the
effective date of the appropriate increase, and submit the new
hourly rate.
- A separate request must be made for each of the
rows that exist on the employee’s Job Data page.
Reporting Retroactive Adjustments for All Miscellaneous
Earnings
The agency must calculate and report the retroactive adjustment for all "miscellaneous
earnings."
The Earnings Code AJR must be used to report the
combined retroactive adjustment for all earnings. The agency must
provide an explanation of the adjustment in the General Comments
page or on a separate worksheet. If the agency uses a worksheet,
the worksheet must be received in OSC’s Audit Section by the
agency deadline for Pay Period 10C.
The Earnings Code AJR must be reported as follows:
Earnings Begin Date: |
Enter the first date to be adjusted. |
Earnings End Date: |
Enter the last date to be adjusted. |
Earnings Code: |
Enter AJR. |
Amount: |
Enter the total amount of the adjustment. |
|
OSC Actions |
Provided the agency appropriately submits the applicable increases,
OSC will automatically process the retroactive adjustments for
all “regular hours” paid to employees regardless of
the employee’s status.
Automatic adjustments will not be calculated for “miscellaneous
earnings.”
|
Revised Rate Chart |
A revised rate chart reflecting the new rates and appropriate Earnings
Codes will be faxed to agencies.
