It seems to me that Histotech non-registered without pay increase would be appropriate. Why would you change his title and give him an increase in pay when he didn't fulfill his employment agreement? I would not decrease his pay and I would not terminate a good employee. Apparently he earned his present pay as an "undocumented" non-registered Histotech and nothing has changed. He should continue to get merit increases as per usual, with the goal of getting the Associates Degree, and registry (if still interested). He should be allowed to perform any function he has been deemed competent to perform. Just my 2 cents.

The lab management wants to change his title from histotech eligible to histotech non-registered without pay increase. But I feel the pay should be increased. So I would appreciate comments on the following: 1.) should title be changed from eligible to non-registered? 2.) After having done this for 8 years should his pay stay the same? 3. Should job responsibilities remain the same Thank you in advance for feedback!
