RE: Salary Program Administration Instructions for Policy-Covered (Non-Represented) Staff (FY 2022-23)

Dear UCSB UCPath Transactional Users,

The Salary Program for eligible policy-covered (non-represented) staff will be implemented centrally by Human Resources in collaboration with the UCPath Center. The following information and instructions represent our best estimate of how the process will unfold.

UCPath Data Review and Preparation (May 28 - June 13):

To ensure that the salary increase program includes the correct population and the most updated information for each eligible employee, please review the appointment details of your policy-covered (non-represented) staff (using the “Jobs by Group” report in Data Warehouse EZ Access) to ensure that:

Job (Employee) Class = Career (2) or Partial Year Career (7)
Job Expected End Date = blank or a date that is later than the salary increase program effective dates (6/26/22 for BW and 7/1/22 for MO)

No later than June 13th, please enter any outstanding job code or salary action changes (for eligible employees) into UCPath that are effective prior to the salary increase program effective dates.

If you have already entered comp rate or job code changes in UCPath that are effective on or after the salary increase program effective dates (for eligible employees), we have been advised that you will need to re-enter those actions into UCPath after the freeze period has been lifted. Instructions for re-entering these actions into UCPath will be located on the HR website.

Employee Rosters: Because HR is centrally managing the implementation of the salary increase program this year, there won’t be any distribution of rosters for your review. We will manage the eligible population centrally and in coordination with the UCPath Center.

UCPath Freeze Period (June 14 – July 1):
For employees identified as eligible for the salary increase program, do not enter any salary actions or job code changes in UCPath during the freeze period. Other changes such as fund source, reports to, and location are okay to enter, as are temporary stipends.

Upload of Increases to UCPath:
HR will centrally manage the upload process with the UCPath Center. Departments are NOT responsible for entering salary increases directly into UCPath. The mass upload process will occur between June 29 - July 1. HR will notify campus when the process has been successfully completed.

Pay Out Dates:

Eligible bi-weekly paid employees will see the increase reflected in their July 20th paycheck.
Eligible monthly paid employees will see the increase reflected in their August 1st paycheck.

Questions:

Salary Increase Program FAQs are available on the HR website. If you have any additional questions regarding the salary increase program process or instructions, please submit a ticket via HR Service Now to Compensation & Classification > General Questions.
