Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce that the University of California will provide a general 3.2% salary increase for eligible policy-covered staff employees and academic appointees at all locations. UC President Drake confirmed the salary program today with the following details:
Policy-covered staff employees
- Salary increases will be implemented as a general increase, where all eligible policy-covered staff employees would receive a 3.2% increase to their base salary, effective July 1, 2025, for monthly and June 23, 2025, for bi-weekly paid employees.
- Although this year’s salary program for policy-covered staff is not a merit program where performance is a consideration related to the salary increase amount, the importance of the annual performance review process should not be discounted. All policy-covered staff employees should continue to receive, at least annually, a performance review per policy.
Policy-covered academic employees
- For policy-covered academic appointees, the academic salary scales will be increased by a general range adjustment of 3.2%. The adjustment to the academic salary scales will be effective July 1, 2025.
- The regular peer-review merit advancement process for policy-covered academic appointees will continue per academic personnel policy.
Represented staff and academic employees
- Salary increases for exclusively union-represented employees are governed by their respective collective bargaining unit agreements, which are separate from this salary plan.
Thank you for all you do on behalf of UC ANR to uplift the people of California.
