   3. Effective April  second,  two  thousand  twenty  for  officers  and
 employees  on  the  administrative  payroll  and effective March twenty-
 sixth, two thousand twenty for officers and employees  on  the  institu-
 tional  payroll,  the  basic  annual salary of officers and employees in

 be increased by two percent adjusted to the nearest whole dollar amount.
   4.  Effective  April  first,  two thousand twenty-one for officers and

 fifth,  two thousand twenty-one for officers and employees on the insti-
 tutional payroll, the basic annual salary of officers and  employees  in

   5.  Effective March thirty-first, two thousand twenty-two for officers
 and employees on the administrative payroll and effective April seventh,

 employment status on the day before such  payroll  period    shall    be
 increased by two percent adjusted to the nearest whole dollar amount.
   6. Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivisions two, three, four and
 five  of  this  section,  if  the  basic  annual salary of an officer or
 employee to whom the provisions of this section apply is identical  with
 the  hiring rate or the job rate of the salary grade of his or her posi-
 tion on the effective dates of the increases provided in these  subdivi-
 sions, such basic annual salary shall be increased to the hiring rate or
 job  rate, respectively, of such salary grade as contained in the appro-
 priate salary schedules in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3 and 4 of paragraph c of

   8. If an unencumbered position is one which if  encumbered,  would  be
 subject  to  the provisions of this section, the salary of such position
 shall be increased by the salary  increase  amounts  specified  in  this
 section.  If  a position is created, and filled by the appointment of an
 officer  or  employee  who is subject to the provisions of this section,
 the salary otherwise provided for such position shall  be  increased  in
 the  same manner as though such position had been in existence but unen-
 cumbered.   Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, the director
 of the budget may reduce the salary of any such  position  which  is  or
 becomes vacant.
   9.  The  increases in salary provided in subdivisions two, three, four
 and five of this section shall apply on a prorated basis to officers and
 employees, otherwise eligible to receive an increase in salary, who  are
 paid on an hourly or per diem basis, employees serving on a part-time or
 seasonal  basis, and employees paid on any basis other than at an annual
 salary rate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of  subdivi-
 sions six, seven and fourteen of this section shall not apply to employ-
 ees serving on a per diem or seasonal basis, except as determined by the
 director of the budget.
   10.  In  order  to provide for the officers and employees to whom this
 section applies but are not allocated to salary grades, but are paid  on
 an  annual  basis, increases and payments pursuant to subdivisions seven
 and fourteen of this section in proportion to those provided to  persons
 to  whom  this  section  applies who are allocated to salary grades, the
 director of the budget is  authorized  to  add  appropriate  adjustments
 and/or  payments  to  the compensation which such officers and employees
 are otherwise entitled to receive.   The director of  the  budget  shall
 issue  certificates  which  shall contain schedules of positions and the
 salaries and/or payments thereof for which adjustments  and/or  payments
 are  made  pursuant to the provisions of this subdivision, and a copy of
 each such certificate shall be filed with  the  state  comptroller,  the
 department  of  civil service, the chair of the senate finance committee
 and the chair of the assembly ways and means committee.
   11.  Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of  this   section,   the
 provisions of this section shall not apply to officers or employees paid
 on  a  fee schedule basis, provided however, that the increases in basic
 annual salary provided for in subdivisions two, three, four and five  of
 this  section  shall  apply  to  fire instructors paid on a fee schedule
 basis employed by  the  division  of  homeland  security  and  emergency

 receive  his  or her former salary pursuant to such subdivision shall be
 determined on the basis of such lower graded position provided, however,
 that the increase in salary provided in this  section  shall  not  cause
 such officer's or employee's salary to exceed the job rate of such lower
 graded position.
   13.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this section or any law to
 the contrary, any increase in compensation may be withheld in  whole  or
 in  part  from  any  employee to whom the provisions of this section are
 applicable when, in the opinion of the director of the  budget  and  the
 director of employee relations, such increase is not warranted or is not
 appropriate for any reason.

   14. Notwithstanding any law, rule or regulation to the contrary, offi-
 cers  and  employees  to whom the provisions of this section apply shall
 receive performance awards in accordance with the terms of a collective-
 ly negotiated agreement between the state and the employee  organization
 representing  such  employees entered into pursuant to article 14 of the
 civil service law, effective for the period commencing April 2, 2019 and

 tiated performance awards.
   § 3. Location compensation for certain state officers  and  employees.
 Notwithstanding any inconsistent provisions of law, officers and employ-
 ees,  including  seasonal  officers  and employees who shall continue to

 pro-rated  basis except part-time officers and employees, in the collec-
 tive negotiating unit designated as  the  professional,  scientific  and
 technical  services unit established pursuant to article 14 of the civil
 service law, whose principal place of employment or, in the  case  of  a

 provided  they  continue to be otherwise eligible; or (b) in the city of
 New York, or in the county of Rockland, Westchester, Nassau  or  Suffolk

 county of Dutchess, Putnam or Orange shall continue to  receive  a  mid-

 teen dollars effective April 1, 2011.  Such location payments  shall  be
 in  addition  to  and  shall not be a part of an officer's or employee's
 basic annual salary, and shall not  affect  or  impair  any  performance
 advancements or other rights or benefits to which an officer or employee
 may  be entitled by law, provided, however, that location payments shall
 be included as compensation for purposes of computation of overtime  pay
 and  for retirement purposes.  For the sole purpose of continuing eligi-
 bility for location pay in Monroe county, an officer or employee  previ-
 ously  eligible  to  receive location pay on March 31, 1985 who is on an

 negotiating  unit designated as the professional, scientific and techni-
 cal  services  unit,  who  is receiving location pay pursuant to section

 receiving on the date of such reassignment, appointment or promotion.
   §  5. Special assignment to duty pay. Notwithstanding any inconsistent
 provisions of law, effective April 2, 2019,  where  and  to  the  extent

 sion is negotiated by the parties.  Such lump sum  shall  be  considered

 entered into pursuant  to  article  14  of  the  civil  service  law  so
 provides, a lump sum shall be paid each year to an employee who is serv-
 ing  in a qualifying long term seasonal position.  Such payment shall be

 of  the  civil service law so provides on behalf of certain employees in
 the collective negotiating unit designated as the  professional,  scien-
 tific  and  technical  services  unit,  and  where there exists a policy
 requiring employees in the fire protection specialist  title  series  at
 the  office  of fire prevention and control to wear uniforms, a lump sum
 uniform allowance shall be paid to covered employees in accordance  with
 the  terms  of  such agreement and policy.  Such payments shall be in an
 amount negotiated for covered employees and shall not  be  paid  in  any
 year where a policy does not exist requiring uniforms in accordance with
 the  terms of the agreement or where an employee is not required to wear
 a uniform or receives a regular uniform service.  Such uniform allowance
 will cease to exist on April 1, 2023, unless an extension is  negotiated
 by the parties.  Such lump sum shall be considered salary only for final
 average salary purposes.
   §  13.  (a)  Notwithstanding  any provision of law to the contrary, as
 soon as practicable after the ratification of the collective  bargaining
 agreement,  where  and to the extent that an agreement between the state
 and an employee organization so provides for a  nurses  uniform  mainte-
 nance and cleaning allowance for the purpose of maintaining and cleaning
 their  own  nurses  uniforms,  such  allowance shall be paid to eligible

 A. 8036                            10
 
 full-time annual salaried employees in nursing titles. The  payment  for
 such  allowance  shall  be  a one-time lump sum payment in the amount of
 five hundred dollars but shall not be added to base  annual  salary  and
 shall not be considered salary for overtime nor retirement purposes. The
 payment  for  such  allowance shall be pro-rated for individuals who are
 less than full-time annual salaried.
   (b) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, employees in
 eligible titles who fall under the pilot  workers  compensation  program
 that  was collectively negotiated by the state and an employee organiza-
 tion shall be paid in accordance with the  terms  of  that  agreed  upon
 program.
   §  14.  The salary increases and benefit modifications provided for by
 this act for state employees in the collective negotiating  unit  desig-
 nated as the professional, scientific and technical services unit estab-
 lished  pursuant  to  article  14  of the civil service law shall not be
 implemented until the director of employee relations shall  have  deliv-
 ered to the director of the budget and the comptroller a letter certify-
 ing  that  there  is  in  effect with respect to such negotiating unit a
 collectively negotiated agreement, ratified  by  the  membership,  which
 provides  for  such  increases  and  modifications  and  which are fully
 executed in writing with the state pursuant to article 14 of  the  civil
 service law.
   §  15.  Date  of  entitlement to salary increases. Notwithstanding the
 provisions of this act or of any other provision of law to the contrary,
 the increases in salary or compensation to employees  provided  by  this
 act  shall  be  added to the salary of such employee at the beginning of
 that payroll period, the first day of which is nearest to the  effective
 dates  of such increases as provided in this act, or at the beginning of
 the earlier of two payroll periods, the first days of which are  nearest
 but equally near to the effective dates of such increases as provided in
 this  act;  provided, however, that, for the purposes of determining the
 salary  of  such  unit  members  upon  reclassification,   reallocation,
 appointment,  promotion,  transfer,  demotion,  reinstatement,  or other
 change of status, such salary increases shall be deemed to be  effective
 on  the  dates  thereof  as prescribed by this act, with payment thereof
 pursuant to this section on a date prior thereto,  instead  of  on  such
 effective  dates,  and shall not operate to confer any additional salary
 rights or benefits on  such  unit  members.    Payment  of  such  salary
 increases may be deferred pursuant to section sixteen of this act.
   §  16.  Deferred  payment  of  salary  increase.   Notwithstanding the
 provisions of any other section of this act or any  other  provision  of
 law  to  the contrary, pending payment pursuant to this act of the basic
 annual salaries of incumbents of positions subject  to  this  act,  such
 incumbents shall receive, as partial compensation for services rendered,
 the  rate  of  salary  and other compensation otherwise payable in their
 respective positions.  An incumbent holding a position subject  to  this
 act  at  any  time  during the period from April 1, 2019, until the time
 when basic annual salaries and other compensation  due  are  first  paid
 pursuant to this act for such services in excess of the salary and other
 compensation actually received therefor, shall be entitled to a lump sum
 payment  for the difference between the salary and other compensation to
 which such incumbent is entitled for such services and  the  salary  and
 other  compensation actually received pursuant to the terms of an agree-
 ment between the state and the employee  organization  representing  the
 employees covered by this act.

 increase in compensation pursuant to this act, suffer any  reduction  of
 the  salary adjustment to which he or she would otherwise be entitled by
 reason of participation in such  program,  and  such  salary  adjustment
 shall  be  based  upon  the  salary  of such officer or employee without
 regard to the reduction authorized by such article.

 other provision of law to the contrary, the sum of $746,248,000 is here-
