Explanation

(This amendment provides $11.7 million from the general fund over the biennium for salary increases for probation and parole officers at the Department of Corrections. This amendment would increase the probation and parole officer starting salary to $45,000 and increase supervisory salaries accordingly, addressing salary compression through the ranks. This compensation action was proposed by the Department of Corrections during the 2021 Public Safety Compensation Work Group.)
