Additional Compensation for Academic Personnel
Prompted by a recent review, UW has pledged to clarify its additional compensation policy and enhance both operations and communication to ensure better understanding and compliance. Following the findings of the 2022-23 Internal Audit report, Executive Order 59 (EO59) was revised to clearly define when and at what levels additional compensation may be awarded to faculty, who has the authority to approve these requests, and any exemptions from the policy. While EO59 specifically governs faculty, it will also serve as an additional compensation model for other academic personnel populations.
Key changes and features associated with the implementation of this revised policy include:
- A 25% monthly limit to the amount of additional compensation
- Any amount above a 25% monthly limit will require provost approval
- An expansion in approval authority to streamline workflows
- Clarity on exemptions to the policy
- New compensation plans in Workday
- Validation rules on the Workday business processes
For details, visit Executive Order 59 and the OAP Additional Compensation webpage. Join us on September 10 for a training session on the revised compensation policies.
