ND RenewOverview
Sharing background about the project
The University is engaged in a process to more effectively articulate and manage its compensation program
2006 ND Voice survey feedback identified the following perceptions concerning the current position structure and compensation practices:
Out-of-date and no longer function properly
Inconsistent among the University departments
Employees at the University are paid low or paid under market
The three phases of this process are:
Articulating our compensation philosophy — Completed
Developing related policies and procedures — Completed
A comprehensive review of our exempt and non-exempt non-faculty position structure and compensation program, ND Renew

ND RenewOverview
Setting the context for ND Renew
ND Renew was planned before the current national economic events
This project is not:
A plan to reduce pay
A cost-saving initiative
An effort to eliminate jobs
While the impact of this project cannot be determined until it is complete, there should be no expectation of individual salary adjustments
Any outcomes from this project will be implemented independent of the Performance Planning and July 1, 2009 Merit Pay process
