City Salary Schedule and Pay Administration

In November 2021, the City of Florence City Council adopted a new job and pay framework for the City of Florence. The job and pay framework is made up of two elements:

  • The Pay Structure, which contains 12 salary grades (down from the previous 26 pay grades). Each salary grade has a minimum and maximum amount of salary compensation for the salary grade; and
  • The Job Framework, which identifies one of four roles for every position, and then assigns experience levels to the position within the role. This way, each position in the City has a role and an experience level.

The two elements work together to form the framework for salary compensation at the City. For example, for all positions in the organization that were assigned the role of “Professional” at Level 1 (entry level), they share salary grade 6.

The four role types are: Associate, Technician, Professional, and Leader. There are 5-7 levels per each role type.

You can find the Role, Level, and Salary Grade for each position on the next pages. For the most up-to-date information, the City's job descriptions contain role, level, and salary grade. Active Job Descriptions can be found here: https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/florenceor/classspecs

Effective July 1, 2024, the City changed it's compensation structure. Employees in grades 1-7 are now on a merit step system.

Non-PERS employees will be placed onto the non-PERS pay table. Once they reach PERS eligibility, the employee moves to the same grade and step on the PERS pay table.

An employee's position determines their grade.

 

Below is a list of all positions per salary grade followed by the Non-PERS table and then the PERS table.
