The Salary Commission recommended and the Mayor and Council approved pay raises for the deputies in January, 1981. One year has now passed since the last salary increase was granted during which time it has become considerably more expensive to live. In addition the staff now has one more year of experience, resulting in an increased level of skill in the office. Finally, the entire staff performed outstandingly last year, meriting an increase in salary. Comparison to Civil Service Increase. All civil servants enjoy an annual increase in pay. Although the Legislature has not seen fit to confer civil service status or the right to bargain collectively on the deputies, I believe they should be entitled to expect and receive benefits simlar to those granted to civil servants. Regular increases in salary is one of the benefits. The deputies in this office work long hours. They routinely put in more than forty hours per week. Unlike civil servants, they are not compensated for the excess hours. At the very least this dedication should be rewarded with the modest salary increase I am requesting. Parity with Deputies of the Prosecuting Attorney's Office. Although the nature of the legal work performed by the prosecutors differs from that performed by our deputies,. the skills required and the difficulty of the work are equivalent. However, the present salary ordinance assigns substantially higher grades to the prosecutor's deputies than to the deputies in this office. The prosecutor's deputies' salary grades range from LS -7 to LS -13, while the deputies in this office range from LS -2 to LS -9. The prosecutor's office has nine positions at LS -7, one at LS -8, two at LS -12, and one at LS -13. My request will bring the grades of the deputies in this office closer to those of the prosecutor'.s. 2. Impaceof Proposed Change The proposed change will increase the salaries of the deputies a total of $15,840 per year. This amount has been budgeted into the salary account for FY 1982-83. For the period between January 1, 1982 and June 30, 1982, the change will require $7,910. Our salary account is adequate to handle this amount. EXHIBIT C.
