Treasury Board has authorized departments to increase wage levels for 2009/2010 STEP student positions effective May 4, 2009 and approved a wage adjustment formula to increase STEP wages annually (starting in 2010/2011) at a rate equal to the annual general pay increase approved for the current and future Manitoba Government Employees’ Master Agreements (GEMA).
NEW 09/10 RATES:
Level 1: |
$9.71 | Formerly STEP 1 ($8.72) and STEP 2 ($9.44) |
|---|---|---|
Level 2: |
$10.69 | Formerly STEP 3 ($10.39) |
Level 3: |
$11.62 | Formerly STEP 4 ($11.30) |
Level 4: |
$13.01 | *New rate* |
The restructured wage scale eliminates the under-utilized Level 1 rate and provides increases of approximately $0.27 to $0.32 to remaining STEP wages. Additionally, the scale introduces a new Level 4 rate of $13.01 restricted to positions that require highly-specialized education, training, and skills; involve complex work assignments; and/or include assistant supervisory duties.
STEP Services retains only one application form each year. If you need to report a change of address or phone number, or require additional information, please contact mb4youth@gov.mb.ca or call 945-3556.
