Chapter III
Section 11. Guidelines for Administrative Faculty Salary Increases
- 11.1 Annual Merit Salary Recommendations. An award of merit is expected to recognize the person who has (1) performed at least "satisfactorily" in the areas for which the person is evaluated and (2) is considered meritorious in at least one of those areas. Merit awards are specifically not to be confused with inequity adjustments. Among the many legitimate reasons to award merit are the following:
- A. To encourage exceptional performance in any of the several areas for which a Administrative faculty member is evaluated;
- B. To reward exceptional performance in any of the several areas for which a Administrative faculty member is evaluated;
- C. To reward outstanding performance over a long period of time -- performance that may not have resulted in merit for any particular year;
- D. To allow for other specific or general exceptions, which to the evaluators represent some outstanding, reason for awarding merit.
- 10.2 Equity Salary Increases. Administrative faculty members are entitled to equity salary adjustments based on salary and similar performances of other administrative faculty in similar positions and circumstances within the Nevada System of Higher Education.
- 10.3 Reconsideration and Grievances of Denial of Salary or Merit Increases. See UNLV Bylaws, Chapter III, Section 13 and Section 20. (B/R 3/03)
