Automatic Progression - Classified
Classified automatic progressions are the result of recruitments in which the position is recruited for at a level lower then the fully authorized level of the position. Progression to the authorized level occurs when the employee meets the requirements to move up to the next level, as determined by their department in cooperation with Business Center North Human Resources. Automatic progressions resulting in a one grade change are eligible for a pay increase equivalent to a one step increase in the employee’s former grade. Automatic progressions which result in a two grade change or more are compensated in the new grade at the step which is equivalent to a two step increase in the employee’s former grade or step 1 in the new grade, whichever is lower in pay. Automatic progressions of two grades or more may impact an employee’s merit date. For more information on contribution factors to promotion pay please refer to NAC 284.170, NAC 284.182, NAC 284.437 and NAC 284.4375 or contact Business Center North Human Resources at 775-784-6844.
Lines of Progression – Administrative Faculty
A Line of Progression identifies a series of job titles through which an administrative faculty member may be promoted from one range to the next higher range. The positions within each line of progression must be clearly established and listed on each Position Description Questionnaire within the series. The knowledge, skills and abilities within the Line of Progression will generally be very similar. Each higher range within a Line of Progression will have a demonstrative increase in complexity of work, functional responsibility and/or impact. The following rules are applicable to a Line of Progression.
- Typically, the series of positions within a Line of Progression will be within the same organizational unit.
- Promotion from one range to the next within a line of progression is neither automatic nor “time in the position” dependent. Commendable job performance, acquisition of additional knowledge, skills and abilities, and recommendation of the immediate supervisor are all needed to move from one range to the next within a line of progression.
- The highest range for a line of progression position is Range 4.
- Promotion eligibility within a line of progression requires the faculty member to be in the lower range position for at least one year.
- An increase in salary of up to ten percent may be granted for a line of progression promotion or to the minimum of the next range whichever is greater (per current policy). If an employee receives a progression to the next level during a fiscal year, the individual is not eligible for merit in that year.
