Compensation Information Session

Human Resources will be hosting an information session on June 27 at 12-1p.m. in EC5-1111. Employees are invited to ask any questions regarding the staff salary agreement covering the May 1, 2018 to April 30, 2021 period.

Compensation (pay practices) are intended to maintain internal pay equity, compensate employees relative to responsibility, and encourage higher performance levels, which are governed by the University's current and future financial commitments.

In accordance with Policy 5, Salary Administration, University Support Staff, the Provost’s Advisory Committee on Staff Compensation (PACSC) developed a compensation recommendation based on market data, the findings of the staff salary review, and other compensation arrangements on campus. This recommendation was approved at the June 5, 2018 Board of Governor's meeting.

The agreement includes:

• On April 30, 2018 and April 30, 2019, salary ranges will be increased by 0.75% and the merit program will run to determine pay. Salary ranges will also increase by 2% on May 1, 2018 and 2.15% on May 1, 2019 and May 1, 2020. The merit program will run in each of the three years and increases will be effective each May 1.
• The annual contribution to the employee health and dental care benefits plan for the benefit of staff will increase by ~$800,000 or approximately $325 per employee per year
• A working group will be established to review whether there is gender inequity in staff salaries as a result of salary administration practices
• A second working group will complete a full and comprehensive performance appraisal system review
