     8  [paragraphs] paragraph (b) [and (c)] of this subdivision, be entitled to
     9  have service at such lower salary rate deemed to be service at  the  job
    10  rate  and  considered  as eligible service in determining fulfillment of

    22  percentage  increase in basic annual salary as provided in this subdivi-
    23  sion or a basic annual salary equal to the hiring rate  of  such  higher
    24  grade  which is in effect at the time of promotion, whichever results in
    25  a higher annual salary.  Effective April first, two thousand twenty, for
    26  the purposes of such calculation, where the terms of an agreement  nego-
    27  tiated  pursuant  to article fourteen of this chapter applicable to such
    28  officers and employees so provide, the amount of longevity paid to  such
    29  employee  being  promoted,  appointed or advanced shall be considered as
    30  part of basic annual salary.
    31    § 4. Compensation for certain state officers and employees in  collec-
    32  tive  negotiating  units. 1.  The provisions of this section shall apply

     1  or employee to whom the provisions of this section  apply  is  identical
     2  with the hiring rate, job rate, or step 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 of the sala-
     3  ry  grade of his or her position on the effective dates of the increases
     4  provided  in  these  subdivisions,  such  basic  annual  salary shall be
     5  increased to the hiring rate, step 1, 2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  or  job  rate,
     6  respectively, of such salary grade as contained in the appropriate sala-
     7  ry  schedules in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of paragraph e of subdi-
     8  vision 1 of section 130 of the civil service law, as  added  by  section
     9  one  of  this act, to take effect on the dates provided in subparagraphs
    10  1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of such paragraph, respectively. The increases in basic
    11  annual salary provided by this subdivision  shall  be  in  lieu  of  any

    21  services negotiating unit.
    22    9.  If  an  unencumbered position is one which if encumbered, would be
    23  subject to the provisions of this section, the salary of  such  position
    24  shall  be  increased  by  the  salary increase amounts specified in this
    25  section. If a position is created, and filled by the appointment  of  an
    26  officer  or  employee  who is subject to the provisions of this section,
    27  the salary otherwise provided for such position shall  be  increased  in
    28  the  same manner as though such position had been in existence but unen-
    29  cumbered. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section,  the  director
    30  of  the  budget  may  reduce the salary of any such position which is or
    31  becomes vacant.
    32    10. The increases in salary provided in subdivisions two, three, four,
    33  five and six of this section shall apply on a prorated basis to officers
    34  and employees, otherwise eligible to receive an increase in salary,  who
    35  are  paid  on  an hourly or per diem basis, employees serving on a part-
    36  time or seasonal basis and employees paid on any basis other than at  an
    37  annual  salary  rate.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of

    39  ees serving on a seasonal basis, except as determined by the director of
    40  the budget.
    41    11.  In  order  to provide for the officers and employees to whom this
    42  section applies who are not allocated to salary  grades,  increases  and
    43  payments  pursuant to subdivision eight of this section in proportion to
    44  those provided to persons to whom this section applies who are allocated
    45  to salary grades, the director of the budget is authorized to add appro-
    46  priate adjustments and/or payments to the compensation which such  offi-
    47  cers  and  employees  are otherwise entitled to receive. The director of
    48  the budget shall issue certificates which  shall  contain  schedules  of
    49  positions and the salaries and/or payments thereof for which adjustments
    50  and/or payments are made pursuant to the provisions of this subdivision,
    51  and  a copy of each such certificate shall be filed with the state comp-
    52  troller, the state department of civil  service,  the  chairman  of  the
    53  senate finance committee and the chairman of the assembly ways and means
    54  committee.

     5  except subdivision one, any increase in compensation for any officer  or
     6  employee  appointed  to a lower graded position from a redeployment list
     7  pursuant to subdivision 1 of section 79 of the  civil  service  law  who
     8  continues  to receive his or her former salary pursuant to such subdivi-
     9  sion shall be determined on the basis  of  such  lower  graded  position
    10  provided, however, that the increases in salary provided in subdivisions
    11  two,  three,  four,  five  and  six of this section shall not cause such
    12  officer's or employee's salary to exceed the  job  rate  of  such  lower
    13  graded position.
    14    14. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this section or
    15  any law to the contrary, any increase in compensation may be withheld in
    16  whole  or  in  part  from  any  employee  to whom the provisions of this
    17  section are applicable when, in the opinion of the director of the budg-
    18  et and  the  director  of  employee  relations,  such  increase  is  not
    19  warranted or is not appropriate for any reason.

    21  collective   negotiating   units.   Notwithstanding   any   inconsistent
    22  provisions of law, officers and employees, including  seasonal  officers
    23  and  employees  who shall receive the compensation provided for pursuant
    24  to this section on a pro-rated  basis,  except  part-time  officers  and
    25  employees,  in  the  collective  negotiating unit designated as the rent
    26  regulation services negotiating unit, whose principal place  of  employ-

    30  ter,  Nassau or Suffolk shall continue to receive a downstate adjustment
    31  at the annual rate of three thousand twenty-six dollars.  Such  location
    32  payments shall be in addition to and shall not be a part of an officer's
    33  or  employee's  basic  annual salary, and shall not affect or impair any
    34  performance advancements or other rights or benefits to which an officer
    35  or employee may be entitled by law,  provided,  however,  that  location
    36  payments  shall  be included as compensation for purposes of computation
    37  of overtime pay and for retirement purposes.
    38    § 6. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, where  and  to
    39  the  extent  that any agreement between the state and an employee organ-
    40  ization entered into pursuant to article 14 of the civil service law  so

    44  period covered by such agreement  to  the  accounts  of  such  employees
    45  enrolled  for  dependent  care  deductions  pursuant to subdivision 7 of
    46  section 201-a of the state finance law. Such amounts shall be from funds
    47  appropriated in this act and shall not be part of  basic  annual  salary
    48  for overtime or retirement purposes.

    50  priations contained in this act shall be available to the state for  the
    51  payment  and  publication  of  grievance and arbitration settlements and
    52  awards pursuant to articles 31 and  33  of  the  collective  negotiating
    53  agreement  between  the state and the employee organization representing
