I would like a clarification if it’s possible. I have heard that along with the salary increase, state employees will also receive the Merit based on the PE for the 2018-2019 service year. Then I heard that they are both one and the same. Can you enlighten me or has a decision been made?
Going forward Merit will be added to your base salary. Career Service Recognition will be paid in a lump sum.
