Re: Notice of Service Rate Adjustment
Dear Ms. Knox,
Thank you for choosing AIS for your security needs. We appreciate your business.
Please accept this letter as a formal request for a service rate increase effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025.
Current Rate New Rate (Effective July 1, 2024)
Regular Unarmed Officer $31.00/Hour $32.00/Hour
Regular Unarmed Officer
Overtime/Holiday Rate $46.50/Hour $48.00Hour
Below are outlined reasons why the above adjustments must be made:
The service rate aligns with the Consumer Price Index, which for January 2024, is 3.10%. The service rate increase serves to compensate for both the mandatory living/minimum wage requirements as well as to further stabilize the manpower needed to service your contract due to the nationwide labor shortage from the pandemic and current economic status.
Please feel free to contact us to discuss any questions you may have. As always, we are here to help, and again, we appreciate the opportunity to serve you.
Sincerely,
Lisa Phan, Controller
