Title There are three Laboratory Technicians on staff. This number probably will not change. If all three take and pass the test for the Health Laboratory Technician II and are subsequently promoted it will cost approximately $3,100 for the first year. As they go up the salary steps to the 25-year step the cost would rise to $3,800 each year. This differential will be increased somewhat by percentage increases.
