Such increases are within the sole discretion of the University and require prior approval as follows:
a. Up to five percent (five steps) in any 12 month period: Requires approval by the MAU human resources director or the chief human resources officer. *
b. Exceptions (more than 5 steps) require approval by the chief human resources officer,* based on the recommendations of the appropriate chancellor ** and MAU human resources office.
In-grade adjustment requests require written justification, including documentation of exceptional performance.
*This has been delegated to the Compensation Team as part of UA HR.
