 Worker's Compensation:
 
 All City employees are covered under the North Carolina Worker's Compensation Act. This act covers those employees who suffer injuries as a result of an accident while performing duties. The Workers' Compensation program will pay medical expenses and a portion of the employee's salary, after 7 days, if the individual is out of work as a result of a work-related disability.
 
 
 
 Compensation, Performance Appraisals and Merit Process:
 
 The City of Goldsboro is committed to hiring and retaining high quality personnel. As a result, we offer competitive salaries that are consistent with market growth. New hires may serve a six month probationary period upon date of hire and are evaluated in six-month increments.
 
 
 The eligibility for merit is based upon the following criteria:
 
 
 Employee must have an overall appraisal rating of 2.0. Employee should score at least 2.0 in competencies; any competency with a score less than 2.0 will result in employee's ineligibility.
 
 
 
 Note: The merit eligibility criteria is subject to change at the City Manager's discretion.
 
 
 
 The appraisal process in the City of Goldsboro includes an evaluation of each employee's duties and responsibilities applicable to their position. Upon completion of the probationary period, employees are evaluated on an annual basis. The appraisal period is from October 1 &ndash; September 30 of each year.
 
 
 The City of Goldsboro may provide merit incentives for high performing employees subject to City Council approval.
