North Carolina H911 revises salary schedules for occupational and physical therapists, provides salary supplements, and mandates workforce reports.

North Carolina H911 revises the minimum salary schedule for occupational and physical therapists, ensuring it reflects years of experience and aligns with state salary grades. It provides salary supplements for these therapists, equating to 10% of a teacher's salary or $350, whichever is greater. These supplements are additional to any state funds already allocated. The bill also mandates local boards of education to report annually on therapist salaries and workforce details to the Department of Public Instruction, which in turn reports to the Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee.
