Synopsis Grievant is currently employed by Respondent as an Adult Protective Service Worker. After Grievant completed a one-year training period as an Adult Protective Service Worker Trainee on May 15, 2017, DHHR did not begin paying her at the higher pay rate of an Adult Protective Service Worker until June 24, 2017. DHHR acted in accordance with a policy memorandum from the Division of Personnel, issued in 2015, which allows up to ninety (90) days to accomplish such transactions. Grievant failed to demonstrate that this delay in processing the necessary reallocation documentation to effectuate her pay increase violated any law, rule, regulation or policy applicable to her employment situation. Accordingly, this grievance will be denied.
