CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2021–2022 REGULAR SESSION

Senate Bill
No. 566

Introduced by Senator Leyva

February 18, 2021

An act to add and repeal Section 89509 of the Education Code, relating to public postsecondary education.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 566, as introduced, Leyva. Public postsecondary education: California State University: support staff employees: merit salary adjustments.
Existing law establishes the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. The California State University system comprises 23 institutions of higher education. Existing law requires the trustees to provide by rule for the government of their appointees and employees, as specified.
This bill would require, after completion of the first year in a position and after each subsequent year, that each support staff employee of the California State University receive a merit salary intermediate step adjustment of 5% when the employee meets the standards for satisfactory performance in the position, as specified. The bill would require, on and after January 1, 2022, language that effectuates its provisions to be automatically incorporated into any pertinent memorandum of understanding or collective bargaining agreement entered into, or renewed, by the California State University. The bill would require any associated costs incurred by implementing its provisions to be paid for using existing resources of the university.
This bill would make these provisions inoperative on July 1, 2032, and would repeal them as of January 1, 2033.
