    • TEAMS Titles (UFHR)
    • UF Staff Salary Structure (UFHR) - Pay Grades by classification

    Special Pay Increase

    Special pay increases should not compound salary compression within the unit.  Multiple factors will be considered when offering guidance for an appropriate increase amount.

    New Hire Salary Guideline

    In a greater attempt to combat salary compression, IFAS HR has set the following guideline for new job postings for staff while keeping the door open for negotiation on both sides of the table.

    • Best Practice: salary ranges may state the lower reference point to the 25th percentile of the pay grade and/or place “Commensurate with education and experience

    Examples:

    “$39,700 - $46,000 or commensurate with education and experience

    “$46,000 or commensurate with education and experience”

    Minimum Wage:

    $13.00 hourly OPS employees
    GAU Collective Bargaining Agreement Graduate Assistants
    $58,656 annually per 1.0 FTE Postdoctoral Associates
    $15.00 hourly non-exempt TEAMS
    $43,888 annually exempt TEAMS
