UCSF Compensation Committee

Members: Deans, Vice Chancellors, Chief Campus Counsel, and Medical Center CEO
UCSF Compensation Committee Chair: Senior Vice Chancellor John Plotts
SLCG Team Chair: Director-Human Resources Specialty Center Mike Tyburski
SLCG/SMG Coordinator: Joanne Fraysse

The overall purpose of the UCSF Compensation Committee ("Committee") is to provide oversight and guidance to better align senior leadership compensation internally between similarly situated employees and externally with relevant labor markets. This charge will be carried out by reviewing, endorsing, and/or approving recommendations, as submitted by the UCSF Human Resources SLCG Team, for positions classified in the Management and Senior Professional (MSP) program, grade levels 7-10, and all Senior Management Group (SMG) positions. Exceptions to this charge include the following: 

 SMG positions that report directly to the Chancellor and whose incumbents are members of the Committee will not be subject to the Committee review process as there would be a conflict of interest for Committee members if these actions were discussed amongst themselves. However, these actions will continue to be reviewed, analyzed, and process through the Human Resources SLCG Team. Actions for MSP positions that report directly to the Chancellor will be subject to the Committee review process.

 MSP 7-10 positions that have actions including total cash compensation equal to or less than $250,000 and no exceptions to policy are exempt from the Committee review process. These actions will be reviewed, analyzed, and approved within the Human Resources SLCG Unit and, on a bi-annual basis, implemented actions will be reported out from the Human Resources SLCG Unit to the Committee.

Reviews include the following: Assistant/Associate VC title usage; initial classifications; reclassifications; salary determination upon promotion or upward reclassification; administrative stipends; salary increases; and staff emeritus designations. The Committee is responsible for the following: 

Endorsement of SLCG actions (except those listed above) with total cash compensation exceeding $250,000.

Endorsement of SLCG actions that are equal to or less than $250,000 which have exceptions to policy requiring Chancellor's approval. Once recommendations are endorsed by the Committee, recommendations/endorsements are subject to the Chancellor's final approval or endorsement and, as applicable, final approval by the President or The Regents.

Endorsement or approval, as applicable, of programmatic SLCG changes as presented by the Human Resources SLCG Team.

All Actions: The "SLCG Template-Item Request" form is to be completed for all actions and submitted, with associated required documents, to the SLCG Coordinator. The "Approval Authority Matrix" provides details on approval authority levels.

• Initial Classifications: A position description and organizational chart, complete with the appropriate departmental signature authority, are to be submitted to the SLCG Coordinator.
• Reclassifications: Significant changes in the assigned responsibilities of a position may warrant review for the purposes of reclassification.  A position description, related organizational chart, and a brief outline of significant changes must be submitted to the SLCG Coordinator.
• Salary Determination upon Promotion or Upward Reclassification: Departments may request salary increases upon a promotion or upward reclassification.  Requests for salary increases must be submitted, in writing, to the SLCG Coordinator.
• Salary Equity Increases: Requests for equity increases must be submitted, in writing, to the SLCG Coordinator.
• Stipends: Temporary assignments which significantly expand the scope of duties may warrant review for the purpose of temporary administrative stipends. A position description, an outline of additional duties, an organizational chart, and a brief outline of the time period and rationale for assignment must be submitted to the SLCG Coordinator.
• Assistant and Associate Vice Chancellor Title Usage: Requests for the use of Assistant and Associate Vice Chancellor titles must be submitted, in writing, to the SLCG Coordinator for evaluation and recommendation to the UCSF Compensation Committee.
