Central Salary Management (CSM)

President Buchanan has directed that the University implement a new policy with respect to classified staff positions.  The policy governs the salary funds that will be retained on classified staff lines when vacancies occur or when budgets are established for new positions. 

Funding for classified staff positions that become vacant or any budget established for new positions will be set at 15% into the pay grade.  All Section I programs will relinquish funds in excess of 15% over the minimum pay grade for positions vacated by benefited staff. 

Programs will process permanent budget transfers (download form here) moving the excess funds into a central account. Classified staff positions funded through self-sustaining accounts will also be restricted to salary funds equal to 15% into the pay grade although the excess funds will not be transferred to a central salary pool.
