Did I hear something about no aviation pay line? If so, we owe it to those Troopers to let them know.

I am not sure how many people this effects but my guess would be somewhere in the range of 15-20 ISO personal. Camps 50-55 are the most effected. Everyone before Camp 50 is maxed out on payscale and everyone after camp 55 has not been part of step freeze contracts. Specifically my class (51) has investigators on 4 different pay scales. Joe Thomassen- who has been investigator longest in class 51 will be making 104,062 in July Myself- second longest investigator in class 51 will be making 107,681 in July Andrew Phillips- will be making 111,467 in July John Lukesh will be making 115, 356 in July (unsure who went to ISO first between Phillips and Lukesh) Another example would be Class 52 Dion Neumiller will be making 111,467 Sgt Eric Hesser will be making 108,180 (sgt making less than investigator) Amanda Defreece will be making 104,062 Around 2018 in contract it stated investigators will go down two steps, so if you were investigator then you went down two steps. Anyone who transferred to ISO after the 2018 contract stayed at same pay line as their camp is part of the problem. I am unsure on some of the other issues, I would ask that negotiators look at putting something in the upcoming contract to be similar to putting investigator back on the same step as their class or match the highest investigator of their class.

Bargaining items
by Eric Pfeiffer 03 Sep '24

03 Sep '24

Bargaining Team, First off, I would like to thank you each for being a member of this team that will represent the members of STAN for the upcoming bargaining session. I really appreciate what you all do during this time and the sacrifices you make for it to happen. I have just a couple items that I would like for consideration during the bargaining meetings. I’m sure that a pay raise for everyone is at the top of the list, as it usually is the main topic of bargaining. I definitely don’t want to downplay an increase to each pay line, but in addition to that, I would like to see the following implementations as well: * Personnel that have not been advanced on steps during the contracts when only the pay lines were increased and no steps were awarded, need to be caught up on their pay steps. I think that all personnel (Sgt. and Trp.) should be on the appropriate step to match their years of service. So anyone with 15+ years of service should be on step 15, 14 years of service should be on step 14, and so on, down to step 1. For Sergeants this would go by their sworn in date, not years as a Sergeant. There are some instances where Sergeants earn less than the Troopers they supervise, and this would alleviate some of that issue. * Carrier Enforcement Sergeants and Troopers should be included on the ISO and EP pay lines, as they are specialty positions as well. The Carrier Enforcement Division does not get Troopers assigned to it out of camp anymore due to the fact that they must learn additional knowledge, attend additional classes, and gain additional certifications in order to properly perform the daily functions within the division. The Carrier Enforcement personnel are required to have this additional knowledge and perform these additional duties all while still performing all of the basic Trooper duties. * This has been discussed with the Colonel’s office and Command Staff before and they are in support of it. They have just said it needs to be brought to the table by our bargaining committee and it is something that they would agree to. This would be a benefit to all of our ranks, as it would give everyone the opportunity for the increase in pay if they transfer to the Carrier Enforcement Division, and it would be a detriment to no one. If the command staff has already said it is something they would agree to, I see no reason why it shouldn’t be presented during bargaining. Thank you for time and consideration. Eric Pfeiffer
