M-Represented salary schedule

Managerial, Represented (M-Represented, whose salary codes begin with &) is the New Jersey civil service salary schedule covering employees represented by International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. It runs from range 24 to range 44, and each range is a 11-step ladder from a minimum to a maximum. It took effect July 11, 2026.

Managers represented by IBEW. Unlike the unrepresented managerial schedule, this one is negotiated and current, and it carries eleven steps rather than nine. It is the clearest illustration of what union representation is worth structurally: the same job family, a live table instead of one frozen for well over a decade.

Across the whole schedule, pay runs from $76,287 at the bottom of the lowest range to $278,960 at the top of the highest. Working from step 1 to the top step of the same range is worth between 43.2% and 48% depending on the range, before any across-the-board increase. A title's salary code is this ERG prefix followed by its range number, so &24 is a M-Represented title at range 24.
