UVA employees will get a bonus for the first time since November 2007.
This bonus, approved due to the state surplus from the last fiscal year, will equal 3 percent of employees’ annual income and will be disbursed on November 26th or December 1st, depending on their payroll cycle.
"It has been several years since staff and faculty have received a salary increase, and this bonus is intended to recognize your service through these challenging times," Susan Carkeek, VP and chief human resource officer, wrote in an e-mail to University faculty and staff. "Your continued hard work and dedication to the University are sincerely appreciated."
Employees must have been hired by July 1 and have a rating on the Lead@UVa evaluation system by September 30 to be eligible for the bonus.
