We cut the checks but don't send them out until the Finance Committee has<br>
signed the warrants. If a bill is coming due, we do send them out without a<br>
signature to avoid late fees.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>

We have to manage a separate spreadsheet that is updated regularly as<br>
people are hired, leave, etc.....<br>
It includes the number of:<br>
work days, vacation days, & holidays<br>
It then calculates based on the number of hours per day and their hourly<br>
wage the total annualized salary.<br>
We only pay average for 22 pays- per our CBA--but all ed techs within the<br>
unit must be pay averaged.<br>
<br>
Isn't pay averaging fun???<br>
<br>
<br>
