Requests to provide employees with additional pay for temporary assignments shall first be submitted in writing to the director for review and indicate the reason and period of time required, if applicable. This pay may exceed the maximum for the employee's class. If temporary assignments are terminated or the duties removed, the additional pay shall also end.

(1) Leadworker. An employee who is temporarily assigned lead work duties, as defined in rule 11-50.1 (8A), may be given additional pay of up to 15 percent of the employee's base pay.

(2) Special duty. An employee who is temporarily assigned to a vacant position in a class with a higher pay grade may be given additional pay equal to that provided in paragraph "a" or "b" of subrule 53.6(6), whichever is applicable.

(3) Extraordinary duty. An employee or class of employees who are temporarily assigned higher level duties, including supervisory duties, may be given additional pay. The amount of pay must be approved by the director.

(4) Effect on within grade increases. Temporary assignments shall not affect an employee's eligibility for within grade pay increases, and the additional pay amount shall be recalculated whenever a within grade pay increase is granted. The class to which the employee is temporarily assigned shall be controlling for purposes of overtime, shift differential, standby and call back pay.
