If the pay increase for nonunion staff is going to be 4.6%...

...what will be the general increase for faculty? From Campus Human Resources:

In accordance with UC President Drake’s announcement regarding the FY 2023-24 Salary Program, the following guidelines are designed to assist departments in implementing the program for eligible staff. This program applies to policy-covered non-probationary staff in career, partial-year career, and eligible contract appointments. Student employees in casual-restricted positions and staff holding limited appointments are not included, nor are employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

In order to recognize the extraordinary efforts by our policy-covered staff members during these challenging times, the University is providing a 4.6% general increase to all eligible employees. Increases will be effective June 25, 2023 for employees on bi-weekly payroll and July 1, 2023 for those paid monthly. Accordingly, the new rates will be reflected in the July 19 or August 1, 2023 paychecks.

Although individual increases under this year’s salary program are not merit-based, the importance of the performance review process should not be discounted. All policy-covered staff must continue to receive performance reviews at least annually as required in Staff Personnel Policy...

Salary increases will be processed centrally by Campus Human Resources (CHR) or UCLA Health Human Resources (HHR).

Contract employees at UCLA Health are not eligible for the increase as PPSM-30 coverage is no longer applied to any new or renewed contracts.

For Senior Management Group (SMG) employees, salary actions are in accordance with delegated authority established by the Office of the President and must be approved by the Chancellor, the President, and/or the Regents...
