§ 11567 Salary Increase Timing Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •If the law says someone in a job can't get a raise while they're in that job, they have to wait.
  • •The raise will only start after their current time in the job ends and they start a new term.
  • •This rule is for jobs where the law says when and how raises can happen.

Example

A mayor is supposed to get a raise, but the rules say they can't get it while they're still the mayor.

The mayor won't get the raise until after their current time as mayor ends. If they become mayor again, then the raise starts.
