Caltrans has provided information to the Department of Finance (DOF) describing how the long-overdue salary increase for PECG-represented supervisors and managers could be funded. PECG, DPA, Caltrans and other departments have met constantly since supervisors were denied the same pay increase received by Unit 9 employees in July 2008. All parties agree that the result has been inequitable, with some supervisors being paid less than employees they supervise and, in some classifications, bargaining unit employees are paid 10% more than supervisors in the same class. DOF approval and funding in the State Budget are needed to implement the raises.
