C. Payment. <br />1. On the eleventh (11th) consecutive working day an employee has been <br />serving in a Temporary Upgrade Assignment, and for each additional <br />consecutive working day the employee so serves, he or she shall receive <br />the beginning rate (Step "AAA") assigned to the higher classification or <br />the lowest rate in that range which is at least ten (10) salary rate ranges <br />(approximately 5%) higher than the current base salary rate he or she <br />normally receives, (inclusive of lead pay and exclusive of any other <br />assignment or special pay additive or additives) whichever is greater, <br />except when placement at "B" step will not be sufficient to provide the ten <br />(10) salary rate range increase. <br />If an employee has worked ten (10) consecutive days during the term of <br />this Agreement in a higher classification, the employee shall thereafter <br />receive upgrade pay for each day the employee is assigned to work in the <br />higher classification during the term of this Agreement. <br />2.

If the special circumstances upon which said <br />additive is based are also applicable to the Temporary Upgrade <br />Assignment and the employee remains eligible for such pay while in the <br />temporary upgrade position, this amount will be added to the new salary <br />rate range. <br />3. Temporary Upgrade Assignments which entail moving an employee into a <br />classification represented by an employee unit other than that which <br />represents his or her permanent classification shall not include any change <br />in fringe benefits for the affected employee. <br />4. While working in a Temporary Upgrade Assignment, an employee will <br />continue to accrue, and have recorded, general, special or normal salary <br />step increases in the employee's permanent position; however, such salary <br />increases will be paid only to maintain the minimum five percent (5%) <br />differential above the salary to which an employee is entitled in his or her <br />permanent position. <br />5.6 All assignments of personnel to positions set forth in Sections 5.1 through 5.4 above shall <br />be made or revoked at the discretion of the Department Head. <br />5.7 Limitation on Assignment Pay Differentials. Employees covered by this agreement and <br />already receiving assignment pay under section 5.1 of this article and who continue to <br />meet the qualifications described in the applicable assignment pay provisions of section <br />24
