Staff to receive 2 percent salary increase

Staff to receive 2 percent salary increase

Thank you for your good work!

With gratitude for another successful year, the president's staff has authorized a 2 percent pay increase to the base salaries of all regular full- and part-time, salaried and hourly employees on staff as of June 1 (except for temporary employees and those covered by labor contracts). Faculty salary increases are handled through a separate process and administered by the executive vice president and chief academic officer.

This salary increase for staff, which is effective Sept. 1, is based on the university's current financial means. Members of the president's staff regret that St. Thomas' current budget climate precludes the award of larger salary increases this year. You may be pleased to know that future budget-year planning calls for larger increases.
