On July 1, three wage increases will be applied to APSA salaries.
- General Wage Increase - 1%
In the last round of bargaining, our Salary & Benefits team negotiated an agreement that included general wage increases of 5.5% over five years. This year, 1% will be applied to all APSA salaries.
- Economic Stability Dividend - 0.75%
The provincial government announced stronger than forecast economic growth in 2017. This resulted in an additional modest salary increase of 0.75% for B.C. public sector employees this year.
- Step progression
Members, who are at step 7 or below in the salary range, will receive a
one-step increase. This is effective on July 1 of each year. It is based on
satisfactory performance.- Temporary Employees
Temporary employees are eligible for a step increase if employed in the
same temporary position for six months prior to this date (policy AD 10.06, section 4). If
you do not see a step increase to your salary after July 1, please contact
your supervisor or a Human Resources Advisor. - Probation
Employees on probation will receive a step increase upon the successful
completion of their probationary period. See policy AD 10.22 for details.
- Temporary Employees
The annual and biweekly salary scales have been updated with the increases. They can be viewed on HR’s APSA information web page, under “Salary”.
