Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(20 ILCS 415/8a.2) (from Ch. 127, par. 63b108a.2)
(Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 102-952)
Sec. 8a.2.
For the purposes of the pay plan established under Section
8a of this Code, the Director may establish a special pay supplement for
those positions of employment that require, pursuant to the Department's
official classification specification, that a person employed in that
position speak or write a language other than English. Positions paid
under Section 8a of this Code may be eligible for a bilingual pay
supplement to attract bilingual individuals, to encourage present employees
to become proficient in languages other than English, or to retain qualified
bilingual employees. The positions eligible for a bilingual pay
supplement, the amount of the supplement and the length of time it remains
in effect shall be negotiated between the Department and the appropriate
collective bargaining representative as determined under the Illinois Public
Labor Relations Act. The bilingual pay supplement may be negotiated for
each foreign language required for the position by the Department's
official classification specification.
