A brief description of how the institution ensures that its lowest-paid workers (including contractors, if applicable) receive sustainable compensation:
Pace University pays prevailing wages for job type or classification.
Pace University pays average salaries for most positions, slightly above average salaries for higher level and hard to fill - highly skilled positions. The University pays a set amount above minimum wage, approximately 17% above the wage minimum, as employees are paid at least the published minimum of the pay range for their position.
The compensable rate for a position is primarily established by Human Resources and the hiring manager, through the process of job evaluation and/or job re-evaluation. Each position is evaluated based on internal and external market conditions, the impact of the position on the University, exempt/non-exempt status, salary grade, range and pay structure in accordance with internal ranking, as well as the available funding for the position. Salaries for the same job title may vary based on the credentials and performance of the individuals occupying them.
One example of how Pace University ensure sustainable compensation is that while the University froze annual salary increases in the midst of the education economic downturn, Pace Administration decided to provide a one-time lump-sum payment to employees identified as the "lower-wage earners" as a means of offsetting the losses from the annual merit award freeze.
