The first and most important step in Job Evaluation as explained by our ex AFC Project Manager at the time is to match the post to the most relevant Job Statement, this overides everything else, even the Factors. This is what got all our initially low bandings corrected along with regional comparisons revealing we were below par despite being a uniquely specialized department as far as Technicians go.

Any formula for question below?
If your mto3 pay was 20,474 in 04 what should it be in 08 after afc?

Assuming that under AfC you had straight assimilation across that would put you on Band 5 at pay Point 23 (£21,044).
For 08/09 you would normally have progressed to Pay Point 27 (£28,141 with the 2.75% uplift), but this is above the top of Band 5 which stops at Pay Point 25 (£26,123).

But if assimilation was to band 6 you would get to Pay Point 27 which was the above £28,141 with the new pay scale.

Actually you would only progress to point 26 by now - 23 on 1/10/04 - 24 on 1/10/05 - 25 on 1/10/06 and 26 on 1/10/07

although on another point since you got an MTO 2-3 appeal through you would get a new incremental date of whenever you started the appeal. So assuming that was March 04 then you would receive AFC increments in March rather than October and so would now be on point 27


EDIT Just checked with the T&C handbook and 20,474 would put you across onto point 22 the top transitional point on band 6 paying £20,778 at the time. Applying this to the above means you should now be on point 25 (or 26 with increment in March)

i.e. 25 - £26123 26 - £27191

I worked it out the same as Paul. Pay point 25 until your incermental date then 26.

Yes, looking at it again the previously stated £21,044 for band 5 (or 20,778 for band 6) in Oct 2004 wasn't point 23 but 22. So that would make it 25 and 26 the coming incremental date.

If Kaiser wants to check they could always work it out from the payscales in Annex B of the Terms and conditions of service handbook

Thanks for all your helpful answers. I had my upgrade to MTO3 in July 04.

Ok so you should be on point 25 and go up to 26 sometime this month
