employee wages
by Oscoda County Library 08 Nov '16

08 Nov '16

Good morning, My library board asked me to poll other librarians regarding employee wages. If you have classifications, such as library aides, library clerks: do you have a salary/wage cap? Does your board issue wages based on cost of living increase or based on performance? How frequently do you issue raises? Thank you in advance for your assistance. -- Amy Knepp, Director Oscoda County Library 430 W. Eighth Street Mio, MI 48647 TEL: 989-826-3613 TAX: 989-826-5461 http://www.oscoda.lib.mi.us
