Dear Colleague:
With the October pay date quickly approaching I wanted to reach out to all of you with some updated information regarding paychecks and the implementation of our new contract. Payroll has updated appointments in Wolverine Access to reflect SOME (but not all) of the raises gained in this new contract campaign. You can find your FTR (full time rate) in Wolverine Access under the tab “Employment Information” by clicking the date beside your title under “Appointment Information.”
Changes that are currently reflected in your updated full-time rate (FTR) are the longevity increases of $1800 for Lecturers with 15 completed years of service, and the 2.25% annual increase. The $1800 is added BEFORE the 2.25% annual increase is calculated. If you completed a major review in W21, you should see an increase of 9.25% to your FTR from 2020-2021.
If you became an LII or LIV prior to September 1, 2021: Last month I stated that you should expect the raises due to the new minimums by major review status in your October paycheck. However, although HR has been working hard to confirm how many major reviews each Lecturer has passed, these raises will not occur until the November paycheck. If you are eligible for this raise, you will receive a retroactive payment in November to cover the difference (including the 2.25% annual raise) from your September and October paychecks.
Finally, as if this was not already sufficiently complicated, there is an additional wrinkle for those on 8 month pay. The basic calculation of your FTR is the same as described above. However, because the semester started August 30, you should have received a small paycheck for those two days, which will affect the calculation of your monthly pay for the rest of the semester. We have inquired in vain for the precise formula, but will share it as soon as we have it.
To check that your salary has been calculated correctly, you can check out the salary worksheets that are on our website. It is our intent to hold paycheck “office hours” during which LEO stewards will be happy to go through your FTR and pay stubs to confirm whether your check is correct or not. More information on these office hours will be forthcoming. If you believe your new FTR is incorrect when considering the information above, please contact me at leovp@leounion.org.

Dear Colleague:

Payroll has updated appointments in Wolverine Access to reflect SOME (but not all) of the raises gained in this new contract campaign. You can find your FTR (full time rate) in Wolverine Access under the tab “Employment Information” by clicking the date beside your title under “Appointment Information.”
Changes that are currently reflected in your updated full-time rate (FTR) are the changes to the minimum salaries from 41K to 43K, the longevity increases of $1800 for Lecturers with 15 completed years of service, and the 2.25% annual increase. If adding 2.25% to your current salary lands you below the new min of 43K, you are supposed to receive 2.25% of 43K, i.e. $43,967.50.
If you are eligible for longevity, the $1800 is added BEFORE the 2.25% annual increase is calculated. (Those who are eligible for longevity are already well above the new mins).
If you completed a major review in W21, the formula is more complicated. First you add the 2.25% annual raise to your 2020-21 FTR. If that gets you above 43K (our new min), you go back to your 2020-21 FTR and add 9.25%, which is your 2021-22 FTR.
If adding 2.25% to your 2020-21 FTR DOES NOT get you to 43K, you add 2.25% to 43K (=$43,967.50). Then you calculate 7% of your 2020-21 FTR and add that to the $43,967.50, for your 2021-22 FTR.
If you became an LII or LIV prior to September 1, 2021: Last month I stated that you should expect the raises due to the new minimums by major review status in your October paycheck.
