Other Updates & Reminders:
Senate Bill 525 (SB 525) set a new minimum wage of $23.00 per hour for “covered health care employees” effective June 1, 2024 – May 31, 2025. Minimum wages apply to both non-exempt (hourly) and exempt (salaried) employees and will continue to increase over time. Learn more.
Reminder: This is a follow-up to our notice from October 4.
UPDATE: Training Job Aid Now Available: UCPath has created a job aid that covers this process in more detail: Job Aid: SB-525 Minimum Wage for Health Care Workers
Important Reminders:
- The salary step structure or salary ranges are NOT changing in UCPath for represented employees.
- Compensation rates are updated at the employee record level.
New Compensation Rate Code Available:
- To ensure Staff (Non-Academic) employees meet the minimum wage while maintaining the step structure, new rate codes were created. These codes allow transactors to add an additional pay component to cover the rate difference.
- The UCREDH rate code was temporarily used for employees who were below the minimum wage. This interim measure was in place until a new code was configured for better reporting of employees below the minimum wage.
New Rate Codes for STAFF (Non-Academic):
- Hourly Represented Employees: Use Rate Code UCOFSH to ensure the minimum hourly rate.
- Salary Represented Employees: Use Rate Code UCOFSA to ensure the minimum annual salary.
Effective 10/1/2024:
- UCPath: Will manage systemwide updates for across-the-board increases and ensure minimum compensation and appropriate rate code application.
- Location: Responsible for maintaining minimum rates during onboarding, data changes, pay rate changes (e.g., step increases), etc.
