In order to actually administer the pay raises and decides who gets what, I made use of their performance information, position in the grade, and the pay raise system. IST1 is in the 25 * point and was working above expectations so he gets a full raise of 4%. IST3 was done next. IST3 was exactly on the midpoint and had an outstanding performance so he gets a 4% raise. This is the same as IST1 even though her performance was better because she is already in a higher grade. IST4 was at the 75b point and was above expectations so he gets a raise of 3%. This is exactly the same size as tax. ISTS is way above the grade maximum and is only meeting expectations. This is a red circle rate and he is earning far more than is allowed He will receive no raise
