Your Progress

PROGRESS REVIEWS

Your growth and success in your job is important to us! Once a year, your supervisor will review your job progress and help to set new job performance goals for the coming year. Beginning in 2020, reviews will take place on an annual basis each June. 

PAY RAISES

Supervisors will make recommendations to the Board of Directors and the Company Officers for employee pay raises during the salary evaluation period each year. Adjustments in your pay may be recommended when there has been an improvement or sustainment of an already good performance during the review period.  Final determination for pay increases will be made based on:
-the individual’s performance
-the Company’s collective current profitability
-the future needs and goals of the Company
Beginning in 2020, salary evaluations will take place on an annual basis each July. 

PROMOTIONS

We believe that career advancement is rewarding for both the employee and our company. Whenever possible, we will promote qualified employees from within, to new or vacated positions.
