Overview: In collective bargaining as in budget deliberations, the HR staff and the county manager need to carry around little plastic icons of the payroll gods to remind them of what is realistic and what makes sense. In lieu of retroactivity, consider a flat one-time increase. Instead of promising to implement salary changes on a “date certain,” consult with the payroll staff first and leave the implementation date to a time to be determined by payroll. The latter won’t be as hard as it seems since even the most grizzly of union leaders harbors an internal respect for the payroll staff, though it is not often stated.
