A bill for an act

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA:

Section 1.

Minnesota Statutes 2016, section 43A.20, is amended to read:


43A.20 PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL AND PAY.

(a) The commissioner shall must design and maintain a performance appraisal system
under which each employee in the civil service in the executive branch shall be evaluated
and counseled on work performance at least once a year. Individual pay increases for all
employees not represented by an exclusive representative certified pursuant to chapter 179A
shall be based on the evaluation and other factors the commissioner includes in the plans
developed pursuant to section 43A.18. Collective bargaining agreements entered into
pursuant to chapter 179A may, and are encouraged to, provide for pay increases based on
employee work performance. The performance appraisal system must include a rating
system for employee performance that identifies those employees whose performance:

(1) does not meet expectations;

(2) meets expectations; and

(3) exceeds expectations.

(b) Subject to the exception in paragraph (c), all pay increases or decreases for employees
in the civil service in the executive branch must be tied to a yearly evaluation placing
employees into one of the three categories prescribed in paragraph (a).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no employee in the civil service in the
executive branch shall receive any pay increase, in the year following a performance
appraisal, different from the prescribed percentage associated with the applicable performance
review category under which the employee was found not to meet expectations.

EFFECTIVE DATE.

This section is effective the day following final enactment and
applies to collective bargaining agreements entered into on or after that date.
