4.3.5 Salary Conversion Guidelines for Fiscal and Academic Year Faculty Appointments
(Last Modified January 17, 2012) Report a broken link
Last reviewed: July 2011
When a faculty member on an academic year contract is given a fiscal year administrative appointment, institutions should pay the faculty member an administrative stipend based on the job description and responsibilities related to their administrative role. The administrative stipend should be identified separately from the base salary amount in the faculty member中出少妇视频檚 contract and the contact should specify that the stipend will no longer be available when the administrative appointment ends.
Sample contract language:
中出少妇视频淧lease be advised that your employment as [Faculty Rank and Administrative Title] is at a salary of [Total Salary Amount] from July 1, [Year] and ending on June 30, [Year]. This salary includes an academic year base salary of [Base Salary Amount] plus an administrative stipend of [Stipend Amount] for your administrative duties. Should you no longer hold your administrative position; your administrative stipend will be removed from your total salary.中出少妇视频
The amount of the stipend may vary across units based on the specific responsibilities of the administrative position. For example, a department chair in a department with 40 faculty might receive a larger stipend than a department chair heading a department with 5 faculty. Similarly, a department chair leading a department with multiple degree programs and/or centers might receive a larger stipend than a chair leading a less complex department. The amount of the stipend can be renegotiated annually if the administrative responsibilities change over time. Merit pay increases for administrative faculty may be based on the total fiscal salary (base salary plus the stipend amount).
When a fiscal year administrative employee returns to their academic appointment as a faculty member, the administrative stipend is removed and the faculty member returns to their academic year base salary amount, which should be similar to other faculty in the department with similar rank and experience or other faculty in similar positions at the institution.
