Location Pay

 

 

  • Location Pay is additional compensation paid to employees working in specific counties in New York State.  It is separate from, and in addition to, any geographic differential that might be approved for a particular title.
     

  • Part-Time Employees who work less than 100% time are not eligible for location pay.  Employees participating in the Voluntary Reduction in Work Schedule Program (VRWS) receive a pro-rata share of location pay.
     

  • Location Pay is treated as compensable income for pension purposes.  It is not considered as base salary under any circumstances, including promotion.
     

  • Location Pay is discontinued if the employee is reassigned to a location not approved to
    receive location pay.
     

  • Employees eligible for Location Pay receive either the:

    • Downstate Adjustment (NYC, Long Island, Rockland and Westchester Counties) or

    • Mid-Hudson Adjustment (Orange, Dutchess and Putnam Counties)
       

   
Amount

Downstate Adjustment: $3,026
Mid-Hudson Adjustment: $1,513
