A concurrent resolution to waive the legislative notice requirement for increases in rates of compensation for certain employees in the state classified service.
This bill waives a constitutional requirement that normally mandates the state legislature be notified before salary increases for certain state employees take effect. The change allows immediate pay raises for specific conservation officer positions within the Departments of Natural Resources and Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy, bypassing the usual timeline that requires approval at the start of a fiscal year. This action enables compensation adjustments agreed upon by the state employer and the Michigan State Employees Association to become effective right away, even though the standard process would have delayed them until the next budget cycle.
