Kan. Admin. Regs. § 1-5-15 - Pay of employee upon demotion
(a) Each employee
who is demoted, in accordance with applicable regulations, whether voluntarily
or for disciplinary reasons, shall be paid at the same step of the pay grade
for the lower class as the step on which the employee was being paid in the
higher class, or at any higher step that results in a decrease in the rate of
compensation, except as specified in subsection (b).
(b) Any employee accepting a voluntary
demotion may be paid at a step of the new pay grade that does not result in a
decrease in rate if the action is in the best interest of the state service,
except that the employee's rate of pay shall not exceed the maximum pay rate
for the new pay grade.
(c) Nothing
in this regulation shall prevent a demotion being made to a step in the pay
grade lower than permitted by this regulation, if agreed upon in writing by the
employee and appointing authority. However, if an employee with permanent
status is promoted and, subsequently, is demoted pursuant to
K.S.A.
75-2944, and amendments thereto, the employee
shall be paid on a step that is no lower than the same step of the pay grade
for the lower class as the step that the employee was on immediately before the
promotion.
(d) An employee who
takes a voluntary demotion may also receive a pay step increase on the same
date if the employee is eligible for this increase.
(e) The pay increase date for any employee
demoted for disciplinary reasons shall be governed by the time-on-step
requirement of the step to which demoted. The pay increase date for any
employee who takes a voluntary demotion shall be unchanged if the employee did
not receive a pay step increase on the date of the demotion.
(f) The provisions of K.A.R. 1-5-10, rather
than this regulation, shall apply when a former permanent employee who was
separated from the service for more than 30 days is reinstated to a class with
a lower pay grade.
(g) This
regulation shall be effective on and after June 5, 2005.
