A brief description of the standard(s) against which compensation was assessed:
Effective January 1, 2016, the minimum wage in California is $10.00 per hour.
Most employers in California are subject to both the federal and state minimum wage laws. When there are conflicting requirements in the laws, the employer must follow the stricter standard; that is, the one that is the most beneficial to the employee. Since California's current law requires a higher minimum wage rate than the federal law, CSUMB pays the higher state minimum wage.
In addition to salary ranges that have been negotiated by bargaining units, CSU also offers a wide variety of benefits programs and resources to its employees. The stage of a person's career may dictate the selection of benefits.

In addition to their salaries, they are eligible for Health Care benefits, Retirement Plans (basic and voluntary), Income Protection, Leave, and CSU Fee Waivers. Additional voluntary benefits can be found online.

Additional voluntary benefits can be found online.
A brief description of the compensation (wages and benefits) provided to the institution’s lowest paid temporary (non-regular) staff:
At this time, the lowest-paid, temporary employee earns $12.00 per hour. In addition, they are eligible for Health Care provided they are working more than 30 hours/week for six months. If they work full-time and over six months, they would be eligible for additional benefits.
A brief description of the compensation (wages and benefits) provided to the institution’s lowest paid temporary (non-regular, adjunct or contingent) faculty:
