The Director shall administer and maintain the pay plan subject
to such approvals by the Board as are required by law or these rules after
consulting with State fiscal officers. The Director shall determine the
assignment of classes to salary ranges in the salary schedule in consideration
of prevailing rates of pay in outside private and public employment for
comparable work, recruiting and turnover experience, the relative value and
importance of classes in the state service, the maintenance and benefits
received by state employees, the state's financial condition and economic
policies, and other relevant factors. The Director may from time to time
recommend across-the-board percentage adjustment of the rates in the salary
schedule in consideration of significant changes in overall prevailing rates of
pay and the cost of living. The Director shall make or cause to be made
appropriate surveys of prevailing rates and benefit practices in the Alabama
and other pertinent labor markets. The Director shall recommend any amendment
to the pay plan that will correct inequities or bring about improvements in
salary administration either on his own initiative or at the direction of the
Board or the Governor, or upon request of an appointing
authority.
