During these 10 minutes, Associate Dean Ratje was asked whether or not increases from earlier this year count towards a unit’s target amount for the FY18 salary increase program. He has summarized the answer he provided as follows: “Adjustments that have been recorded as ‘merit’ count towards the target amounts that were prescribed by the Provost. All other forms of salary adjustments, such as promotions, market, retentions, etc., do not count towards the target amounts. The target amounts are maximums that we have been allowed to spend on merit during this process by the Provost.”]

[NOTE: Slides 36-37 have been replaced from those used in the live presentation due to a formula problem in how the proportional FTE and expected salaries of approved new hires was calculated. This error more than doubled the amount of new hire salaries and caused FY14 to reflect a deficit for both perm and temp funding, which rippled through future years.]
