HB 3340 provides a 5% salary increase for eligible state workers effective July 1, 2026. It applies only to full-time state employees who have held the same position since June 30, 2019, without a salary increase since that date. The bill explicitly excludes employees of Oklahoma's higher education system (including colleges/universities) and common school districts. This policy change affects a specific group of state workers meeting all three criteria, with the increase taking effect on the specified date.
