Compensation and Benefits

The Department of Justice employees are members of the state civil service. Their appointment and subsequent advancement is governed by state law. Compensation is determined by negotiations between an employee organization elected by employees and representatives of the Governor.

All civil service classes have salary ranges with minimum and maximum rates. Typically, employees are appointed to the minimum rate of the salary range for the class. Special provisions for appointments above the minimum exist to meet special recruitment needs and to accommodate employees who transfer into a class from another civil service class and are already receiving salaries above the minimum. After each 12 months of satisfactory performance, employees receive a 5 percent merit salary adjustment (MSA) until they reach the maximum salary for the class.

For career development, in addition to opportunities within the Department, movement between state agencies is permissible on a lateral basis.
