Summary: A 2% one-time bonus for all eligible police officers. General Counsel will provide a list of eligible employees to HR

Dear USF Community:

On December 7, 2021,  President Law announced initiatives to recognize and reward 哔咔漫画 employees for their hard work and dedication with:

• a 1.5% pool for base salary increases to eligible out-of-unit employees;
• up to a 2% bonus paid from federal COVID relief funds for employees who had safety, cleaning, or maintenance-related responsibilities during the COVID-19 pandemic;
• and an expanded tuition waiver program that will allow employees to transfer their own unused tuition waivers to their spouses, partners, or dependent children for the purpose of enrolling in eligible undergraduate courses.

These initiatives allowed USF to be fiscally prudent and still improve pay and benefits for employees. We will continue to develop strategies to balance our finances and to value our employees so we may have the flexibility to do more for our people in the future.

At the time of the announcement, these initiatives were only available to USF鈥檚 out of unit employees; that is, employees who are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement (鈥淐BA鈥�) and who are not represented by a union. This is because by law we cannot make changes to the terms and conditions of work for employees who are represented by a union without first reaching an agreement with their unions. In the same announcement, however, USF commited to bargain in good faith to extend these initiatives to USF employees who are represented by unions.

The university followed through on this commitment and we are pleased to announce tentative agreements with AFSCME and PBA for pay increases and the expanded tuition waiver. AFSCME represents many of USF鈥檚 staff employees and PBA represents the University鈥檚 Police Department officers. The membership of AFSCME and PBA ratified their tentative agreements, which will next be presented to the Board of Trustees for approval.

USF remains committed to bargaining in good faith to reach an agreement with UFF to provide faculty with pay and benefit increases. USF鈥檚 current proposal to UFF consists of a three-year agreement that is mostly unchanged from the last full CBA negotiated with the faculty union (e.g. the 2016-2019 faculty CBA). The proposal includes the following wage increases for faculty.

• In the first year, a 1.5% pool for base salary increases to faculty and a 1% discretionary pool that would be distributed to faculty to make salary adjustments for special achievements, market equity, counter offers, and awards. The base increases from the 1.5% pool would be effective upon full ratification, which could occur as early as March 2022, depending on the speed of the process.
• In the second year, a contingent 2% pool for base increases to faculty and a 1% discretionary pool that would be distributed to faculty to make salary adjustments for special achievements, market equity, counter offers, and awards. The base increases from the 2.0% pool would be effective in August of 2022.
• In the third year, a contingent 2% pool for base increases to faculty and a 1% discretionary pool that would be distributed to faculty for salary adjustments for special achievements, market equity, counter offers, and awards. The base increases from the 2% pool would be effective in August of 2023.
• The expanded tuition waiver program that would allow employees to transfer their own unused tuition waivers to their spouses, partners, or dependent children for the purpose of enrolling in eligible undergraduate courses.

The pay increases in years two and three are contingent on available funding because it would be fiscally irresponsible to ignore our current budget challenges or to fail to plan for uncertainties in the next three years. Contingent salary provisions are not new. The 2016-2019 faculty CBA reached with UFF included contingent salary increases, which USF fully honored even when there was pressure on available funds.

The contingency also applies to the discretionary pool; if USF is unable to fund the 2% base increase in years two or three, it will not fund the 1% discretionary pool for those years either. Instead, the parties will resume bargaining to reach an alternate agreement on salary.

You can review USF鈥檚 most recent proposal here. Collective bargaining sessions are always open to the public. Meeting times and locations are posted in advance on this page (see below).

The university will continue to provide regular updates on the status of bargaining. If you have any questions about this message or bargaining in general, please send them to: CBAQuestions@usf.edu
