PROCEDURES/INSTRUCTIONS
|
|
4.1
|
If an employee is uniquely receiving the pay supplement for multilingual
service, then the four percent payment must be requested via entitlement code
083 (pay supplement).
|
|
4.2
|
If an employee is currently receiving another pay supplement in accordance with
the provisions of article 7 of the collective agreement, then the four percent
multilingual service supplement must be integrated with the percentage rate
paid under entitlement code 083. Edits have been removed in order to permit an
increased percentage rate payment.
|
|

|
Once programming has been completed, the details of the new entitlement code
will be outlined in a further Services Pay Directive.
