With only a few weeks left as Indiana's governor, Vice President-elect Mike Pence on Wednesday authorized performance raises for state employees that are expected to cost more than $31 million over the next year.
In a letter to state employees, Pence said the pay increases will be based on performance evaluations to be completed in January. Workers who meet expectations will receive a 2 percent bump. Those who exceed expectations will receive 3 percent. Those rated outstanding will get 4 percent.
“Indiana would not be a state that works without the dedication and commitment of our state employees,” Pence said in a statement. “I am privileged to work alongside the Hoosiers who are the force behind the outstanding services and support the people have come to expect from their state government, and I am thankful for the opportunity to offer these raises based on performance for a job well done.”
The raises are smaller than the 3 percent to 6 percent increases Pence authorized last year. Those were expected to cost the state about $42 million.
