APA SALARY ADJUSTMENTS

Department

HUMAN RESOURCES

Policy

The APA Collective Bargaining Agreement allows for administrators to request salary adjustments based on attaining a new academic credential and/or taking on significantly expanded responsibilities.

Procedure

An administrator wishing to request such an adjustment must document that request, in writing, to his or her supervisor who in turn forwards the request along with a recommendation to approve or deny through the divisional chain of command up to the divisional vice president.  The Divisional Vice President is then responsible for bringing it to the Executive Leadership Team for discussion and ultimate action.  A copy of the request shall be sent to the Chapter president and the Director of Human Resources for tracking purposes.  Once received by the Director of Human Resources, there is a 90 day window within which a decision must be made.

Guidance on Increases in Salary

An administrator who attains a new academic credential and provides proof of that credential shall be granted a 5% increase in salary if approved by the ELT and the President.  Similarly, if an administrator takes on significantly expanded responsibilities, the salary adjustment shall be 5%.  If, however, the expanded responsibilities result in a promotion, then the salary adjustment shall be a minimum of 10%
