Effective July 1, 2015, the GGS pay ranges for grades 16 and below will be increased by 1%.  This adjustment is being made by campus Human Resource Services as part of the ongoing maintenance of the campus compensation structure.  Employees who are paid below the new minimum of the range for their title will receive an increase to bring their salary to the minimum.  The MU Libraries will not be receiving any additional allocation from campus to cover this cost.

Employees who will be receiving this salary adjustment will be contacted directly by email.  Their direct supervisors and division heads will be contacted as well.

Please direct any questions to Sheryl Cullina, at 882-9166 or cullinas@missouri.edu.
