Staff Compensation Task Force

The original task force was charged by Faculty Senate the spring of 2015 to review University of Idaho policies involving the classification system. In fall 2015, this task force presented the idea to staff Faculty Senate leadership. Early in Spring 2016, Faculty Senate approved that task force be changed from Classification Task Force to Compensation Task Force. The task force began to meet to discuss types of compensation structures, including market-based compensation. Wes Matthews, Executive Director of Human Resources was hired and came to the University of Idaho with an expertise in market-based compensation. The task force began meeting weekly at the end of May 2016 and through the summer, formulating an initial plan for market selection and implementation methods. Staff Council and Faculty Senate were presented with the task force’s initial plan at the end of August. We are now presenting this information university-wide for input.
