Positionsexempt from civil service have been listed by theofficial class titles established by statute or otherauthority designated by law.

Authorized Positions

For the 2003–04 and 2004–05 fiscal years, posi-tions reported as authorized or proposed are thosewhich were included in the 2003–04 Budget asapproved by the Legislature and the Governor.Exceptions to this rule are explained by footnote inall cases other than technical adjustments ofposition classification to more accurately reflectassigned duties.

Changes in Authorized Positions

Proposed ‘‘Changes in Authorized Positions’’are presented in individual schedules in eachdepartmental presentation, where applicable, inthe main 2004–05 Governor’s Budget volume.These changes are proposed by the ExecutiveBranch and are listed under ‘‘Workload and Ad-ministrative Adjustments,’’ and ‘‘Proposed NewPositions.’’

Modifications to these proposed changes as aresult of legislative review and final action by theGovernor will be reflected in the Final ChangeBook for 2004–05.

Expenditures

For the 2002–03 fiscal year, actual salary ex-penditures are reported. The salary ranges re-ported are those that were generally in effect onJuly 1, 2003. Salary costs are estimated on the basisof continuous, 100 percent occupancy of all au-thorized positions and include the estimated costof merit salary adjustments where applicable. Ex-ceptions are explained by footnote for those spe-cial cases in which the above general rule was not

followed. Appropriate adjustments to recognizeprobable position vacancies and replacements atlower steps in salary ranges due to turnover areincluded in the Budget (Summary by Objectschedule) as ‘‘estimated salary savings.’’

Number of Positions

For the 2002–03 fiscal year, the number of posi-tions represents actual personnel-years of employ-ment counted to the nearest tenth of a personnel-year. A personnel-year is equal to 12 months full-time employment of one person—12 personsemployed for one month, two persons employedfor six months, or any similar combination equal toone personnel-year.

Positions for 2003–04 and 2004–05 are countedto the nearest tenth and are expressed in terms offull-time, full-year equivalents. The only exceptionis in the case of full-time positions to be establishedafter July 1. In such instances, the position countsand related salary dollars are adjusted for delayedestablishment, e.g., a full-time position to be es-tablished January 1 is counted as 0.5 position.

Salary Range

Rates of pay represent salary ranges establishedby the Department of Personnel Administration(DPA), statute, the Regents of the University ofCalifornia, the Trustees of the California State Uni-versity, the Board of Directors of the Hastings Col-lege of the Law, or the Chairman of the JudicialCouncil.

The amounts shown are the minimum and maxi-mum monthly or hourly rates, flat monthly or dailyrates, or annual compensation. The minimum ofthe range serves as the normal entry rate fornew appointees to any position in a class andrepresents the lowest rate to be paid to anyemployee who is considered qualified for appoint-ment to or retention in a position. The maximum ofthe range represents the highest rate payable toan employee who occupies any position in theclass. These salary ranges are subject to the col-lective bargaining process for represented stateemployees.

v

In some classifications and positions with unusualconditions of work or where it is necessary to meetprevailing rates or practices, more than one salaryrange, or rate or method of compensation hasbeen established within a class. These ‘‘alternateranges’’ and the criteria for their application areestablished by the DPA and/or the State PersonnelBoard. For classes which have alternate ranges,salaries indicated in this supplement show theminimum step of the lowest range and the maxi-mum step of the highest range.

Under the pay plan adopted by DPA, a ‘‘salaryrange’’ is the minimum and maximum rate cur-rently authorized for the class. A ‘‘step’’ for em-ployees compensated on a monthly basis is afive-percent differential above or below a salaryrate rounded to the nearest dollar and for employ-ees compensated on a daily or hourly basis is afive-percent differential above or below a raterounded to the dollar and cents amount. ‘‘Rate’’for employees compensated on a monthly basis isany one of the full dollar amounts found within thesalary range, and for employees compensated ona daily or hourly basis is any one of the dollar andcents amounts found within the salary range.

Merit Salary Adjustment

Government Code Section 19832 provides thateach civil service employee shall be eligible toreceive a merit salary adjustment of five percent inthe employee’s salary range during each year in aposition until reaching the maximum. However, thisadjustment is contingent on the employing de-partment certifying that the employee’s job per-formance meets the level of quality and quantityexpected by the department considering the em-ployee’s experience in the position.

Merit salary adjustments for employees of theUniversity of California and the California StateUniversity are determined in accordance withrules established by the regents and the trustees,respectively.

Special In-grade Salary Adjustment

Classes meeting prescribed criteria are eligiblefor special in-grade salary adjustments; that is,from the first step to the second step of a salaryrange following completion of six months of quali-fying service after appointment, or as otherwiseprovided by DPA Rule 599.685. These special ad-

justments are applicable only to the lower paidpositions and certain others where there is diffi-culty in recruiting and retaining employees.

Salary Range Adjustment

Salary range adjustments for rank and file em-ployees are adopted by the DPA based on aratified Memorandum of Understanding for eachof 21 bargaining units and certification by theDepartment of Finance that sufficient funds areavailable.

In determining the appropriate salary level forexcluded classes, the DPA considers the prevailingrates for comparable service in other public em-ployment and in private business in addition torecruitment and retention needs.

The rates of pay of casually employed trades-workers in State service are established at thehourly wage prevailing in the locality in which theemployee is to work. These employees receive allthe collateral benefits of premium pay for nightwork, travel time, overtime pay, hospital, surgicaland medical insurance benefits prevailing in com-parable employment within the locality.

Casually employed trades-workers working forthe State do not receive the same benefits ofvacation, sick leave and retirement that perma-nent State employees receive. However, the Statedoes pay into vacation and retirement fundswhere such benefits prevail in the locality of work.

Salary Setting Authority

Salaries fixed by statute are those establishedprimarily in Government Code Sections 11550 et.seq., adjusted in accordance with the methodol-ogy prescribed in Section 11569. Statutory salaryprovisions for judges, justices, and related classesare included in Government Code Section 68203and Labor Code Section 112.

Proposition 112, which was approved by thevoters in June 1990, established the CaliforniaCitizens’ Compensation Commission. The Commis-sion has responsibility to establish the annual sal-ary, medical, dental, insurance and similar ben-efits for the Governor, Lieutenant Governor,Attorney General, Secretary of State, Treasurer,Controller, Superintendent of Public Instruction, In-surance Commissioner, members of the Board ofEqualization, and members of the Legislature.
