The 1993 Impacts devoted several issues to JSP salary scale replacement. Clerk's office employees, previously under the JSP scale, were slated to move to a new scale called Salary Level (SL) that would eventually become the CPS. The new system was designed to simplify the JSP system from 160 job benchmarks to 32 benchmarks. The SL system was also touted as providing greater cost control and improving flexibility in grading positions.
