§ 20-126. Demotion—Generally.  


Latest version.
  • An employee who is demoted shall retain the same employment status, except that the employee's rate of pay shall be reduced to the step in the pay range assigned to the lower position that is at least the equivalent of one (1) step in the pay plan. If the demotion is nondisciplinary, and if the employee's present salary does not exceed the maximum of the new range, the director may, upon recommendation of the department head, approve a pay step equal to the employee's former salary.
