Per President Hrabowski’s April 14, 2018 Budget Update, this year’s budget includes a two percent (2%) faculty and staff cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) beginning January 1, 2019. We received further notification that eligible employees will receive an additional 0.5% increase and a $500 bonus on April 1, 2019. The following outlines how these increases will be applied:
The January 1, 2019 COLA will be reflected in the paycheck issued January 25, 2019. The April 1, 2019 COLA and bonus (for those eligible employees) will be reflected in the paycheck issued April 19, 2019. The Human Resources Department will send a separate communication to campus departments regarding the processing of these actions.
Questions regarding the COLA may be submitted to the HR Help link.
On Friday, October 12, 2018, a campus alert was distributed informing the campus community of a delayed opening due to water outage. The Department of Human Resources would like to remind employees of the guidelines and procedures surrounding the eligibility of Administrative Leave (ADM) for proper time recording as it relates to campus closures and delayed openings.
Attached is a document specifying the guidelines for the various campus schedule scenarios. Please share this information with your departmental employees to ensure proper time reporting. Thank you.

RE: PMP Mid-Year Feedback Meeting Reminder
