Executive Summary
POSTING IS REQUIRED
Classification Notice No. 1728 - UPDATED POSTING
To: Agency Heads and Employees
From: Kathy Nesbitt, Executive Director of the Office of Human Resources
Date: July 8, 2022
Subject: Proposed Change to the Classification and Pay Plan
The proposed change amends the Classification and Pay Plan by adjusting the classifications and pay tables that will be impacted by the minimum wage increase to $17.29.
In 2019, the Mayor’s Office and City Council established minimum wage policies affecting all employers and employees in the City and County of Denver. The city’s current minimum wage ordinance hourly rate is $15.87 per hour and is required to increase on January 1, 2023. This original posting on July 8, 2022, that was approved at the Career Service Board meeting on July 21, 2022, did not include a rate for 2023 pending official announcement by the city. On August 9, 2022, the city announced the minimum wage of $17.29, therefore the following changes must be made to the classification and pay plan, which includes certain pay range adjustments and abolishment of certain pay grades, and ensuring employee pay rates to be no less than the minimum wage rate, effective on January 1, 2023. Finally, certain classifications must change pay grade if the grade is being abolished in order to maintain grade distinctions between classifications in a series.
