HB 5075 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

Relating to non-uniform DCR pay raises

HB 5075 would provide a 15 percent pay raise to non-uniformed employees within West Virginia's Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation (DCR). This includes administrative and support staff such as clerical workers who do not wear uniforms, directly affecting their current wages. The raise would apply to all eligible employees' existing pay rates and take effect upon the bill's passage. The legislation amends existing compensation law to mandate this specific percentage increase for these workers.
