Salaries and wages are reviewed annually, based on the administrative staff member’s performance and on salary policies established each year by the Board of Trustees. Based on performance evaluations, the department director makes salary and wage recommendations. These recommendations are submitted to the President who considers and approves them in consultation with the appropriate Dean or Vice President. CCS is committed, within the constraints of its budget, to recognizing excellent administrative staff performance through salary adjustments. Poor performance may be recognized through low or, if appropriate, no salary increases. Final decisions concerning salaries and wages are at the discretion of the College.
