Compensation Management Guide

This brief guide clarifies which form to use for compensation-related requests.

To request a salary increase outside of the normal merit cycle for an employee.

To have an employee’s position or job reviewed, or if an employee's current title and job description do not accurately reflect his, her or their current responsibilities.

Complete a "position review" form (pdf), briefly highlighting major job changes. A "job profile" (the Workday equivalent of a job description) should also be completed for HR to evaluate. It should include the approximate percentage of time spent on each major duty. Job requirements (education, related work experience, licenses or training, etc.) should also be reconfirmed or changed.

To request reclassifying an employee from nonexempt (hourly pay) to exempt status due to promotion or other reasons, or to request a requisition for a new entry-level exempt position (e.g., program, department or academic administrator; research associate 1; or research specialist 1).

Complete a "position review" form (pdf), a "job profile" (noted above) and a "Fair Labor Standards Act position review" form. The FLSA review gathers critical details required to confirm the position’s exemption status (exempt or nonexempt) based on the legal requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Human resources will then prepare a case analysis for management review, making every effort to expedite the process.
