Effective July 1, classified and unclassified employees in full-time equivalent positions whose base salaries are less than $100,000 will receive a 2 percent general base-pay increase.
- Eligible employees will see this increase reflected in their July 15 paycheck.
- For nine-month employees, the increase would become effective when they return in August.
- Research grant and time-limited employees are eligible, but the increase is not guaranteed. Funds from the appropriate funding source must permit the increase, and the funds must be available to support the cost of the increase.
In addition, full-time employees who have been in continuous state service for at least six months before July 1 and who earn less than $70,000 will receive a $600 one-time bonus on Oct. 31.
