<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif">This year, I am pleased to announce a 4.2% general salary increase for all policy-covered staff and academic employees for the 2024-2025 fiscal year, subject to eligibility
requirements. The general salary adjustment will not be a “merit” allocation this year. However, employees must receive a minimum overall rating of “Successfully Meets Performance Expectations/ Successful” (for pilot participants) on their 2024 performance
appraisal to meet <a href="https://documents.ucr.edu/HR-Policy/pol-compensation-covered-salary-increase-eligibility.pdf">
eligibility requirements</a> for the general salary increase.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif">The 4.2% increase to base salaries will be effective July 1, 2024, for eligible policy-covered staff and academic appointees. The adjustment to the academic salary scales for
policy-covered faculty will be effective October 1, 2024. Determinations regarding academic off-scale and above-scale adjustments will be made following notification of the FY24-25 budget allocation from the UC Office of the President. Please note that union-represented
employees are not included in this program, as their wages are governed by collective-bargaining agreements.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
