Change an Employee's Salary

Change an Employee's Salary

Important Notes:

  • Salary changes can be submitted for faculty, staff and all student employees

  • For all employees besides temporary, students, and adjuncts, you must submit Staff Position Action Request form before submitting in Bronco Hub to obtain approval for the salary change.

  • For students and temporary employees, please review student classifications and pay grades.

  • When changing an employee’s salary, you will need to calculate their hourly rate using the Hourly/Salary/Fringe Calculator.

  • Salary changes must have an effective date of the beginning of a pay period (Sunday). If a salary change is submitted with a mid pay period effective date, it will be rejected by HR. The final approval for the submitted action must be completed by the Thursday before payday in order for HR to process the request by the effective date.

    • The exception to the pay period start date requirement: If the action effective date is the same as the hire date, because the hire date does NOT have to occur at the start of a pay period, the request will be approved. In the Comment section, please include the message: “Effective Date is not the start of a pay period, however, it is the Start Date of the position.

If you need assistance completing the form, please contact the Compensation team at compensation@boisestate.edu.

Confirm the request details are accurate before you submit a salary change.

  • Submitted salary changes cannot be edited. If a salary change is submitted incorrectly, you will need to withdraw and resubmit a new one.

What’s next:

Once submitted, the salary change request will route to the following:

  6. Provost if the person being transacted upon is faculty

If other individuals need to be included in the approval workflow (e.g. Principal Investigator for grant funded transactions) the funding source manager must add the PI approver as an AdHoc action.

Important Note: If the employee being transacted upon is not a faculty member, the name of the initiator will display as the last approver in the approval workflow. The initiator does not need to approve the transaction, Bronco Hub will automatically approve after all other approvals have been completed.
