A work plan should be set-up when a new position is established; reviewed with the selected applicant within 30 days of hiring and reviewed semi-annually for revisions. The workplan is represented in Section III of the Performance management, Competency Assessment and Career Development form (PCAC). The workplan represents the functional and behavior competencies that support the position's work and the expected quality of performance of each competency.

Competency assessments must be completed at the end of the probation period and theoretically during performance reviews+D7. Competency assessments may be completed during the year should the supervisor feel that the employee is demonstrating higher level or competency and feels a commensurate salary increase is justified.

Salary adjustments are based on demonstrated levels of competency. An employee does not necessarily receive a salary adjustment because they have added another competency. The competency must be added and demonstrated. Consequently, should an employee receive training, they would return from the training and be given a reasonable amount of time to demonstrate any additional competencies that they learned as a result of the training. Salary adjustments may also be given for market equity if the employee's competencies do not adequately reflect the commensurate salary level in the assigned band.
