Worked example as rendered: RN, step 1 = $60,824 a year, $5,068.67 a month spread over 12 months, $323.53 per work day on a 188-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Appendix A of the 2026-2030 CVEA collective bargaining agreement; this is the first of four annual grids (2026-27, 2027-28, 2028-29, 2029-30) printed in the contract.
The grid also carries a 'From Top' column counting 16 down to 1 and then 'Top'; step 17 is the 'Top' step.
The RN column applies to registered nurses in the bargaining unit, not classroom teachers.
Article 8.03 sets a 188-day contracted work year.
Longevity increments in Appendix B ($300 at 5 years rising to $1,700 past 30) are paid on top of these figures and are not included here.
