Wyoming moves to new market pay system

About 2,500 state employees will receive bumps in pay as part of a job classification project that will go into effect this month, causing consternation among some employees whose salaries remain the same.

The increases range from a few dollars to more than $6,000 per year, with an average bump of 2.6 percent.

The second phase of the state Classification, Job Evaluation and Market Pay Project involves 8,700 positions.

Employee pay is based on a new, broader market than before, according to the newsletter from the state Human Resources Division. To determine the market average, the state used multiple sources with which to compare employee pay — private and public, in-state and regional.

The project moved the affected employees to the minimum salaries of their new pay grades.
