Old Business
- Agenda item 1:
- There are no suggestions in the Suggestion Folder.
- Agenda item 2: Short-term disability
- Tabled due to Ann's presentation
- Agenda item 3: Human Resource Issues
- Ann Lee, Janet Cooper, and Jeannie Pepper represented Human Resources. Ann spoke on the different salary options available on the Bloomington campus. She explained how compensation was delivered, the longevity issue and performance merit. They address these three issues with whatever the percentage raise is available for that year with the highest percentage going to across the board raises. Across-the- board raises consist of cost of living plus 0.5%. Then a percentage is assigned to longevity and a smaller percent to performance/merit compensation.
-
Ann then talked about salary compression and their efforts to reduce it. She also state that HR is conducting an informal market-value.
- Agenda item 4: Results of recent salary survey
-
140 surveys were distributed with 70 received; clerical, 51; service maintenance, 14; technical, 3; unknown, 2. The majority favored a general increase as we now receive; a flat raise was the second favorite. An equity study was favored as long as there was no cost involved. A proposal will be written to address these issues and issues discussed at the open meetings held with Mark Mixner.
- Agenda item 5: Market Day
- It was announced that Market Day is increasing our minimum purchase to $2500 instead of the current $2000. Also, Lisa Ruddell said she and Vicky Jensen would like to retire as coordinators of Market Day. If anyone would like to take this on, please contact someone from staff council. Market Day has been one of our most profitable fundraisers. In 1998 our monthly profit average was $236.00 per month, in 1999 it was $234.00 per month. With only two months in 2000, the current average is $230.00
- Agenda item 6: New fundraiser
- A suggestion to sell Pampered Chef cookbooks was made. There is a nice profit margin on their cookbooks.
