Season 2-Episode 8: FAQ on Pay Lanes & Steps with Mickie Dumont

UTL’s Chief of Operations Marianne “Mickie” Dumont is one of the United Teachers of Lowell’s greatest assets and a wealth of information. She has been a strong Union advocate and involved in much of what makes things work for all of us. Today we are turning the tables on Mickie to ask about how salary steps and salary lanes or columns work.

Remember, if you think your salary is incorrect, the first person to contact is Deb Jarvis in Central Administration, but members can also contact the UTL by phone (978-937-9039) or email (utl@utlowell495.org).

Thanks once again to Mickie for this clear explanation of steps, lanes and salary increases. We remind members to take some time at the beginning of each school year, or even each time a percentage increase is applied, to ensure that the member is on the correct step and/or column.
