Salary Increases Favor 5000 State Workers

A bill backed by the Legislative committee on public service would raise salaries for about 5000 state employees by roughly 300 000 annually. The plan targets workers earning less than 1500 per year, excluding those above that threshold, citing high living costs.

State employee pay bill sets 20 percent raise with caps

The proposal provides a 20 percent increase for staff earning under 1500 dollars a year, not to exceed 100 dollars in any case, and ensures those at 1400 to 1500 receive enough to reach 1500. Only pre July 1 employees benefit, with stricter limits for those at or above 500 dollars. Maintenance affects eligibility, and increases are based on July 1 pay, with the measure temporary pending a Cascenorea Council report.
