Public employment: California State University employees: salary adjustments.

Under existing law, the Department of Human Resources sets minimum and maximum salary limits for different classifications of state employees, and provides for intermediate steps within those limits to govern the amount of salary adjustment that an employee may receive at any one time. Existing law establishes the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. Existing law also authorizes the trustees to employ persons in academic, administrative, and nonacademic positions and to provide for their governance in accordance with law. This bill would declare the policy of the state to provide for intermediate step increases of 2.65%, or the percentage of the increase, if any, during the period between the intermediate steps, in the California Consumer Price Index For All Urban Consumers, whichever is higher, for salary adjustments for academic employees of the California State University.
