N.H. Admin. Code § Per 303.06 - Adjustments Due to Reclassification
(a) If the
director reclassifies a position into a job title with a pay band having a
higher minimum rate of pay, the incumbent's step shall be set to the lowest
step in the new pay band that increases their hourly rate of pay by an amount
equaling one step in the former pay band.
(b) If the director reclassifies a position
into a pay band having a lower minimum rate of pay, the incumbent's hourly rate
of pay shall be adjusted as follows:
(1) If
possible, the incumbent shall be placed in the highest step in the new pay band
that does not increase their hourly rate of pay;
(2) If the incumbent is not placed at the
maximum step in the new pay band, the incumbent shall be eligible for annual
step increases, provided such increases are documented by performance
evaluations;
(3) If the incumbent's
current rate of pay exceeds the maximum value of the new pay band:
a. The incumbent's hourly rate of pay shall
not be reduced for a period of 2 years; and
b. After a period of 2 years, the appointing
authority shall set the incumbent's pay in the new pay band in accordance with
Per
901.07; and
(4) When the incumbent leaves the position,
the appointing authority shall post the vacancy at the adjusted pay assignment
for the position and not at the pay assignment of the employee who held the
position prior to reclassification.
(c) When a position is reclassified, or the
position's broad group is revised, the minimum qualifications required shall
not impose any new or additional education or experience requirements upon the
incumbent or incumbents unless these minimum qualifications are required by
law.
