Barring a collective bargaining agreement (union contract), L&I can raise or lower interpreters’ rates at any time. RCW 51.04.030(1) states that L&I shall establish a fee schedule of maximum charges. WAC 296-20-010(2) reaffirms that the fees listed in the fee schedule are maximum fees.
Whether appointments are distributed through the new scheduling system or not, interpreters will receive the same compensation in accordance with L&I’s payment policy.
