Comprehensive Study of All UVU Staff positions

In the next few weeks, the Gallagher project team will begin selecting staff from various job categories to participate in the study. Participants will be asked general and specific questions regarding their job, which will provide Gallagher insight into the work they do and how they do it. We encourage all staff employees who are contacted to participate, to ensure the success of the consulting engagement.

The goal of the project is to implement a new position classification system and salary structure that will be easy to understand and administer. We anticipate the effective date to be July 1, 2023.

For more information, see the email from HRMatters sent on August 19, or call the HR Front Desk at x8207.
