WISCONSIN EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS COMMISSION QUALIFIED ECONOMIC OFFER
INSTRUCTIONS
FORM C
Utilize the following instructions to determine the components of a qualified economic offer.
Note: If payment of any appropriate salary increase would raise your fringe benefit costs (due to resultant social security and retirement cost increases) above 1.7% of Step 3 (base cost), then reduce the salary increase in the amount necessary to keep the combined cost of fringe benefits, steps, and average salary increase at 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost).
DEVELOPING A QUALIFIED ECONOMIC OFFER
When calculating any appropriate salary increase or decrease, include any increased or decreased salary cost in extended contracts, co-curricular pay, extra duty pay, etc., which is produced by salary schedule increases or decreases or payment of steps or lanes.
1. Complete Forms A and B.
2. Using the information on Form A, determine how the law requires you to proceed by identifying the cost combination that applies to the first 12-month period of your offer.
A. If the combined costs identified by Step 6 (fringe benefits) and Step 8 (steps), are less than 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost), then you must do the following for all employees who are actually represented by the labor organization for the purpose of collective bargaining and contract administration:
1. Maintain all fringe benefits identified on Form B and the district's percentage contribution toward the cost thereof.
2. Pay all eligible employees any salary increase to which they are entitled by virtue of an additional year of service on the salary schedule. Include longevity payments if they are part of the salary schedule.
3. Pay an average salary increase to all employees in an amount determined by the difference between 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost) and the combined cost of Step 6 (fringe benefits) and Step 8 (steps) and in a manner which does not alter the relationship between steps and lanes in your existing salary structure. The options available for distribution of the general salary increase are a uniform dollar amount increase on each salary cell; or a uniform % increase to each salary cell; or an increase in the base which increases each cell in accordance with the existing salary structure.
B. If the combined costs identified by Step 6 (fringe benefits) and Step 8 (steps) are 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost), then you must do the following for all employees who are actually represented by the labor organization for the purposes of collective bargaining and contract administration:
1. Maintain all fringe benefits identified on Form B and the district's percentage contribution toward the cost thereof.
2. Pay all eligible employees any salary increase to which they are entitled by virtue of an additional year of service on the salary schedule. Include longevity payments if they are part of the salary schedule.
C. If the combined costs identified by Step 6 (fringe benefits) and Step 8 (steps) are more than 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost) but the cost of Step 6 (fringe benefits) is less than 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost), then you must do the following for all employees who are actually represented by the labor organization for the purposes of collective bargaining and contract administration:
1. Maintain all fringe benefits identified on Form B and the district's percentage contribution toward the cost thereof.
2. Calculate the prorated portion of Step 7 (steps) which can be funded by 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost) minus the cost identified by Step 5 (fringe benefits). To identify the proration percentage, identify the amount of money available to fund steps and divide by the amount of money necessary to fully fund steps.
3. Pay the same prorated salary increase to all eligible employees entitled thereto by virtue of an additional year of employment on the salary schedule. Include longevity payments if they are part of the salary schedule. For example, if the foregoing calculation would allow payment of half of the Step 7 (steps) salary increase to eligible Step 1 employees, you must pay one-half of the salary increase to which any of your actual employees are entitled by virtue of an additional year of service on the salary schedule during the first 12 months of your offer.
D. If the cost identified by Step 6 (fringe benefits) is 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost), then you must do the following for all employees who are actually represented by the labor organization for the purposes of collective bargaining the contract administration:
1. Maintain all fringe benefits identified on Form B and the district's percentage contribution toward the cost thereof.
E. If the cost identified by Step 6 (fringe benefits) is more than 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost), then you must do the following for all employees who are actually represented by the labor organization for the purposes of collective bargaining and contract administration:
1. Maintain all fringe benefits identified on Form B and the district's percentage contribution toward the cost thereof.
2. You may decrease the salary of all employees in an amount determined by the difference between the cost identified by Step 6 (fringe benefits) and 3.8% of Step 3 (base cost) and in a manner which does not alter the relationship between steps and lanes on your existing salary structure. The options available for distribution of the average salary decrease are a uniform dollar amount decrease on each salary cell; or a uniform % decrease on each salary cell; or a decrease in the base which decreases each cell in accordance with the existing salary structure.
For the second year or portion thereof, repeat your evaluation of options A-E utilizing the costs identified in Steps 9-14 of Form A.
