When an employee is approved by the Court or Probation Administrator for a temporary promotion to a higher salary grade position for a period exceeding 15 working days, the employee shall be paid at least the hiring rate of the salary grade being filled or 5% more than the employee’s current salary, whichever is greater. The salary increase may begin on the first day of the temporary promotion but shall begin no later than the 16th day following the temporary promotion. At the end of this temporary promotion, the employee’s salary shall be reduced to the amount paid prior to the temporary promotion, except that any salary increases granted during that temporary promotion shall be added back into the employee’s base salary. Temporary promotions shall not exceed 1 year unless authorized by the AOCP.
