BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
Chapter 1, General Ordinances, Martin County Code, outlines general information regarding the County's structure and operations. Within this Chapter, Article 3 is dedicated to County Administration. Specifically, Section 1.63 - Appointment of County Administrator: Enumeration of Powers, details 18 different responsibilities of the Administrator, including the recommendation of a current position classification and pay plan for all County positions to the Board.
This agenda item provides the updated Pay Plan Table, detailing salary ranges by pay grade, including minimum, midpoint, and maximum values. The increase in the minimum salary is required to align with Florida's new minimum wage Law, which is adjusted annually. Additionally, with the upcoming change to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) effective January 1, 2025, we need to revise our pay tables to meet the new salary thresholds for exempt employees. Consequently, the maximum salary values will also be adjusted to maintain consistency with this change.
ISSUES:
Maintaining an updated pay plan is essential for retaining and recruiting employees as the market changes, the County must be able to adjust accordingly.
LEGAL SUFFICIENCY REVIEW:
This item has been reviewed for legal sufficiency to determine whether it is consistent with applicable law, has identified and addressed legal risks, and has developed strategies for legal defensibility.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
