“In determining the starting pay rate for new employees, the human resources department completes a slotting form. The starting salary is based on the employee's qualifications, comparable work experience, educational accomplishments, and the salary range as outlined in the job description. New employees who exceed qualifications, because of comparable experience, or the higher education they possess, may be afforded a step increase for every two years of responsible work experience/educational attainment in the field, up to a total of 10 years, at the time of their initial hire. The starting salary is based on the total for years/months of comparable work experience and the total for the appropriate educational accomplishments. For those employees with ten (10) plus years of comparable work experience and a college degree, a step is added to the final salary figure as follows: aa - one step, bachelor's degree - 2 steps, and master's degree - 3 steps. A new employee with a degree unrelated to the field receives up to half the total years of educational accomplishment. The employee's previous work experience in a comparable position must be documented in the employment history section of the kawerak employment application. It is the responsibility of the employee to ensure that their complete work history is documented in their employment application. Once initial slotting has been approved, and the employee accepts the position, it is not subject to re-slotting at a later date, unless it is determined by the hr department that an error has been made in the slotting process. If an employee's work history is unrelated to the field, but some skills required to perform the job are similar, only one half the total years of experience in the position will be counted toward determining the starting salary. Human resources completes the initial slotting recommendation form based on the employment history and educational background of the applicant and forwards a recommended starting salary, with the hire recommendation to the president for approval. The supervisor may request to see the recommended starting salary prior to the president's review. The president or their designee approves the recommended starting salary by signing the personnel action form. Only upon approval by the president, may a supervisor offer the position/salary to the prospective employee. A personnel action form with the starting salary is processed by human resources and signed by appropriate staff and distributed upon completion to payroll, the immediate supervisor, and the employee.”
