Voluntary Pay Action & Employee Benefits Review Working Group
Charge: This working group will continue scenario planning for possible budget reductions in fiscal year 2021 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, to plan for strategic workforce alignment in the next fiscal year, this working group will consider the impact of voluntary pay actions—such as employee-elected furloughs, voluntary reduction of hours and incentivized separation—and the employee benefit portfolio. Additionally, the working group will compare DU’s employee benefits to peer institutions and provide an objective review of costs and benefits.
Timeframe: The working group will summarize findings for senior administration and Board of Trustees by February 28, 2021.
