State employees will soon see a bump in their paychecks as Governor Eric Holcomb has approved performance-based pay raises.

The raises range from 2% to 6%, depending on employee performance ratings.

According to our partners at The Times of Northwest Indiana, state workers deemed to “meet expectations” get a 2% increase, “exceed expectations” garner a 4% raise, and “outstanding” employees will earn 6% more than their current salaries.

Holcomb told state workers he approved the wage hikes in recognition of “a job well done in 2019.”

“I am confident that, together, we will continue to meet the challenges ahead and make this a better state for the people of Indiana and our guests,” Holcomb said.

The publication says the raises will take effect in February and begin showing up in state employee paychecks starting in March.
