At the June 2020 Area Reps meeting with Vice-President Academic & Provost James Rush, a lengthy discussion took place about the regularity of pay for staff at UW. Although changing the pay schedule seemed cumbersome in the past, the introduction of WorkDay made a change more feasible. On August 12, 2020 the Communications and Membership committee sent UWSA members a survey, seeking input on preferred pay schedules. The results are in and will now be sent to the next meeting of Provost Advisory Committee on Staff Compensation.
Survey intro:
We at the University of Waterloo Staff Association (UWSA) Communications and Membership Committee hope that you are all staying safe and well.
Are you happy with your pay schedule? We have created a short survey to help determine if there is a desire to change the timeline of current UW employee pay schedules.
Please take a few minutes to fill out this Pay schedule survey. The results will be shared with the Provost’s Advisory Committee on Staff Compensation for their consideration.
