UNMC will use internal funding to increase the non-faculty staff salary pool by 3.95 percent, to match the funding provided by the state for faculty salaries. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When we were really in a crunch a couple of years ago, we used some salary money to offset a reduction in our appropriation, so that we could save jobs and programs. I&#8217;m really pleased that we can offer our employees this increase now, although I wish we could offer even more,&#8221; UNMC Chancellor Harold M. Maurer, M.D., said.<\/p>\n<p>The salary pool represents the total amount that UNMC is using for salaries. Not all employees will receive equal raises. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to the salary increases, the university also will increase its contribution to the retirement accounts of those employees in the Basic Retirement Plan.<\/p>\n<p>For those employees in Tier 1 of the plan, the university contribution will increase from 6.0 percent to 6.5 percent. The employee contribution for that tier will remain at 3.5 percent. For employees in Tier 2 of the Basic Retirement Plan, the university&#8217;s contribution will increase from 7.5 percent to 8.0 percent. Employees in that tier will continue to contribute 5.5 percent. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s exciting to be able to provide this extra benefit to employees, without the employees having to make any extra contribution,&#8221; said John Russell, executive director of Human Resources at UNMC. &#8220;Quite frankly, our retirement plan is better than most private companies&#8217;, and this increase just makes it that much more of a benefit to our employees.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNMC employees will see increases in their paychecks and in the university&#8217;s contribution to their retirement plans, after the beginning of the new fiscal year on July 1. <i>See story for details.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","department-unmc-today-todays-headlines","author_override-bill-oneill-unmc-public-affairs"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Salaries, retirement plan contributions to increase July 1<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"UNMC employees will see increases in their paychecks and in the university&#039;s contribution to their retirement plans, after the beginning of the new fiscal year on July 1.
