Compensation Improvements Effective April 1, 2005


A.     Purpose

1.    Salary Range Increases, Groups and Levels Affected

This document provides instructions for the determination of individual salaries within the new salary ranges approved by Treasury Board effective April 1, 2005, for members of the EX Group as well as the following groups and levels:

DS7A, DS7B and DS8

PM-MCO Salary Sector 4

B.     Instructions for Implementation of Salary Increases for the EX Group

1.     General

Effective April 1, 2005, salary ranges for the Executive Group are increased by three point zero percent (3.0%). Annex A shows the new salary ranges for the Group.

For purposes of implementing these Compensation Improvements, departments should follow the instructions below as well as the Salary Administration Policy for the Executive Group, which is available via the Treasury Board Web site on the Government Enterprise Network (GENet) and Internet. To access the site, type one of the following in the address section of your World Wide Web browser:

GENet access: http://publiservice.tbs-sct.gc.ca/

Internet access: http://www.tbs-sct.gc.ca

Make the following selection, under the quick links section at the left of the page: Policies / Executive Group.

2.     Salary Affected

The increase is to be applied to the individual's base salary that was in effect on April 1, 2005, after any changes that resulted from the application of the Performance Management Program for the 2004-05 fiscal year.

3.     Salary Treatment - General

Provided that performance of Ongoing Commitments for 2004 -05 was assessed as either Level 0, 2, 3, or 4, executive salaries should maintain their positioning relative to the job rate within the new salary ranges. With this approach, the salary of an individual whose performance has been given one of these ratings will be increased by adding to it the full three percent (3.0%) increase approved for the Executive Group.

However, employees who have one of the aforementioned ""ratings for Ongoing Commitments shall receive at least the new minimum of the new salary range. For example, an EX01 at $89,000 will move to the new minimum of $91,800 although the actual calculation results in an annual salary of $91,700.

In addition, those salaries that were at the former job rate (maximum) will move to the new job rate: e.g. an EX04 salary of $151,000 will move to the new job rate of $155,600 although the actual calculation results in an annual salary of $155,500.

For the purposes of retroactive remuneration calculations, these instructions are effective June 27, 2005.

4.     Salary Treatment - Specific Circumstances

For executives in a variety of specific circumstances, salary treatments are provided in Sections 3 and 4 of Appendix A, Salary Administration Plan of the Salary Administration Policy for the Executive Group. This publication is also available via the Treasury Board Web site at the address noted above, using the same path previously outlined.

5.    Rounding of Salary Calculations

In the interests of ensuring consistency across the Public Service, departments should round all salary calculations to the nearest multiple of $100.

C.     Compensation for Certain Other Excluded Groups and Levels

Rates of pay for other groups and levels that are affected are attached as Annexes B and C. Departments should use these revised rates of pay to adjust the salary rates of their relevant populations effective April 1, 2005.

D.     Reporting to the Public Service Human Resources Management Agency of Canada

No report to the Public Service Human Resources Management Agency of Canada or Treasury Board is required.
