FAs and FSAs: Be on the Lookout for Email Ballot to Ratify 16% Pay Increases! 

After 11 formal bargaining sessions, our CX Bargaining Team has reached a tentative agreement with the University of California increasing starting pay by almost $9,000 or 16% for over 900 newly accreted Financial Analyst 1-2 and Financial Services Analyst 1-2 workers.   

The agreement includes initial pay step placement (closest to but not less than your current rate of pay) including retroactive lump sum payments to Nov. 10, 2024, for Financial Services Analysts, and Feb. 2, 2025, for Financial Analysts, maintenance of current FLSA designation for overtime exempt employees, conversion from contract to career or limited appointments for contract employees, Paid Time Off (PTO) conversion to sick and vacation leave, Grandfathered CEMRP incentive bonus amounts for FAs at UCI for FY 2024-2025, and the assignment of shift differential pay for employees assigned to a regular evening or night shift. 

Workers in these titles will also receive the 3.2% across-the-board raise, plus a 1-step increase (approximately 5.4%) for non-probationary employees effective July 1, 2025, as previously negotiated into the Teamsters CX Unit contract.   

In order to take effect, the agreement must be ratified by members in these titles and we, your Bargaining Team, are recommending that members vote YES on the agreement.
