  1. Staff Compensation Open Forum Hosted by Compensation Committee October 28, 2005

  2. Agenda • Ground Rules • Assumptions • Compensation Committee’s Charge • The Process • Visioning Exercise • Input and Discussion – Seven Questions

  3. Ground Rules • We’re here to listen; not to present • Primary topic: Compensation System for Salaries (not benefits) • Not here to address the 1% reallocation • Look at the “big picture” first; specifics last • BE RESPECTFUL OF OTHERS • Turn off cell phones – Thank you

  4. Assumptions • Implementation in 2006-07 or beyond • New compensation system may address: • Cost of Living • Market Equity • Merit Pay • The salary pool is not going to greatly expand in the near future • Ongoing costs require ongoing sources

  5. Assumptions (cont.) • We’re dealing with classified and unclassified staff positions • This is a very complex issue • There will be a change in the system • Human nature is to fear the unknown • Current system is not perfect • No system is perfect

  6. Compensation Committee Charge • “Simply stated, your charge is to recommend a compensation system that includes merit and equity as primary considerations for salary increases. Specifically, I would like for the committee to consider these major questions: • To what degree should merit and equity be used in assigning salary increments? • What kind of evaluation system needs to be in place to accompany the move to a merit- and equity-based system? • What policy should be used for determining the salary for administrators' return to faculty? • How can the classified system (step and grade) be integrated into a move to a merit-based system? What would the process and timeline be for such a change?”

  7. The Process • Compensation Committee • Staff Compensation Subcommittee • Faculty Compensation Subcommittee • Review past analysis/recommendations • Consider input from open forums • Develop recommendations for . . . • Staff compensation system • Faculty compensation system

  8. Visioning Exercise • Relax . . . This won’t hurt a bit.

  9. Visioning Exercise • What did you see? • What did you hear? • What did you feel? • What are the characteristics of the compensation system you just imagined?

  10. Topic Question #1 • What should our ultimate goal be? . . . To get and keep most staff at market, pay exceptional performers above market, and pay sub-par performers below market?

  11. Topic Question #2 • Should the existing classified grade and step system be retained or eliminated?

  12. Topic Question #3 • If the new system includes a “Cost of Living” component, should it be a percentage or a fixed amount?

  13. Topic Question #4 • How should we address full-time staff who are barely earning a living wage?

  14. Topic Question #5 • What are the benefits and concerns about merit pay?

  15. Topic Question #6 • Who should evaluate your performance to determine merit pay?

  16. Topic Question #7 • Should merit increases be one-time or permanent (added to the base)?
