Salary offers to all applicants must have prior approval from Human Resources.
A new employee is paid at the hiring rate for the position. When an applicant is qualified beyond the stated entry requirements of the position, or when market conditions justify, a new employee may be paid above the hiring rate with prior approval from Human Resources.
When it is determined that qualified applicants cannot be attracted to a particular position at the hiring rate, Human Resources may approve additional pay or may approve hiring at lower pay an applicant who does not meet the minimum qualifications.
