Who decides what guidelines an individual supervisor has for offering increases?
The University’s Board of Visitors will establish salary increases as part of the budget approval process. UHR will develop annual guidelines for merit increases based on the budgeted amount. Schools and units will use these guidelines to determine individual increases. Guidelines will be provided in the form of a range for each evaluation rating rather than a specific amount. Increases above or below those ranges would require additional approval. Additional increases (both in base salary and one time bonuses) are possible during the year for a variety of reasons, including career path progression, employee development, changes in responsibilities, and others.
