BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - A vote has been delayed on a proposal to
replace the near-automatic 4 percent annual pay raises given to
state employees with a sliding scale of increases tied to
performance.
The Civil Service Commission on Wednesday pushed back the vote
until its December meeting. Commission members say too few state
employees have weighed in on the idea, and they want to have an
evening public hearing so more employees can comment.
Several state workers say employees fear retribution from
supervisors if they comment or take leave during working hours to
talk to the commission.
The proposal would affect more than 61,000 “classified” state
employees overseen by the Department of Civil Service.
