Wage Groups and Pay Ranges
宅男福利导航 employees are part of the Biweekly Temporary (BIT) pay group, however, they have their own salary wage groups that are indicative of general minimum (Group A), moderate (Group B), or maximum (Group C) responsibilities, skills, experience, or difficulty necessary for any specific student job title. Adherence to the wage groups and pay ranges ensures fair and equitable wages among similar roles across the university. Supervisors, however, may use their discretion to determine the appropriate hourly wage for their student employees based on their specific job duties and responsibilities and in consideration of their overall department budget. For FWS student employees, higher wages may result in a student reaching their earnings limit earlier in the academic year.
