§ 15-41-123. Compensation differentials.
The Arkansas State Game and Fish Commission may pay a compensation differential under this section to an employee occupying a regularly appropriated position in an amount not to exceed twelve percent (12%) of an employee's base salary. An employee may be paid more than one (1) compensation differential under this section, provided the cumulative total of any compensation differentials paid under this section shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the employee's base salary. A compensation differential shall be reviewed by the Legislative Council or, if the General Assembly is in session, the Joint Budget Committee. The commission shall demonstrate the need for a compensation differential and submit a plan to the Legislative Council or, if the General Assembly is in session, the Joint Budget Committee, identifying the position or classification eligible for the differential. A compensation differential authorized under this section includes only the following: A shift differential; A hazardous-duty differential; A certification differential; and A second-language differential. An employee who receives additional compensation under this section who moves into a position that is not authorized to receive the compensation differential shall have the compensation differential removed from his or her salary. If granting additional compensation under this section has the effect of exceeding the line item maximum assigned to the employee's position or classification, the additional compensation shall not be construed as exceeding the line item maximum for that position or classification.
