2% Pay Plan – What we know and who is eligible. Make sure to be eligible by December 10.

The majority of DEM team members will likely be eligible to receive a 2% wage adjustment in 2022. This action still requires approval by the Joint Committee on Employment Relations (JCOER). We are planning for the likely event the 2% pay plan will be approved and effective January 2, 2022. Please review the following eligibility criteria. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Ann or Paula. Timeline:
  • DEM Admin will audit eligibility criteria on December 13, 2021 starting at 8:00am. If a team member is deemed not eligible at that time, there will be no recourse and they will not receive the 2% adjustment. Please be aware of eligibility criteria.
  • DEM Admin must submit eligible team members to OHR by December 17, 2021
  • 2% pay plan will be effective on January 2, 2021 (January B pay period)
