Salary Administration @ UMass Amherst

The Salary Administration staff are responsible for administering and helping design the compensation and classification programs for staff employees. [The Provost's Office sets guidelines and administers compensation for faculty; Student Employment is responsible for administering the student salaries.]

We strive to ensure that pay decisions are made as objectively as possible, and our salary administration system relies on formal mechanisms to reconcile reliable market data with internal equity. Our primary functions include:

• Consult with hiring managers on job design, staffing issues, salary offers, promotional increases, appropriate titles, etc.
• Administer the salary program, including classification, reclassification, merit pay, and equity adjustments
• Conduct salary surveys for exempt staff positions and benchmark salaries to the relevant markets
• Ensure compliance with laws and regulations
• Coordinate and monitor performance management programs
• Administer the “CC/03” policy for non-exempt temporary staff.
