Pay by Load system for CCSF part-timers - Nine equal paychecks each semester

Most part-time faculty at CCSF are paid according to their percentage of full-time load (FTE) assignment rather than on an hourly basis. This means that part-time assignments, with some exceptions, are paid in nine (9) equal paychecks totaling a semester’s pay. AFT sought this change to regularize pay for part-time faculty and to provide them with a salary for their professional work.

Not all hourly assignments have been converted to Pay by Load (PBL), although the goal at CCSF is to gradually do so. The following categories of hourly assignments will continue to be paid on an hourly basis:

Overloads (full-time faculty)
Substitute
Short-term courses
Office hours (credit only)
Counseling: semester-long assignments convert to PBL in Fall 2007
Librarianship: semester-long assignments convert to PBL in Fall 2007

Calculation of Part-timer’s Pay for assignments under Pay by Load

  1. From Table 1A below, locate your Pro-rata salary at your current Column and Step. CCSF will soon print your current Column and Step on your paycheck advice. (Note: To calculate your pay for a lecture/lab .75 assignment, use Table 1B below. For a credit lab-performance .67 assignment, use Table 1C below.)
  2. Divide Pro-rata Salary by 2
  3. Multiply by the FTE (the percentage of a full-time load that you work) of the assignment = Semester’s Pay
  4. Divide Semester Pay by 9 for your single paycheck amount

Example 1: Biweekly pay for 6 hr/wk credit lecture assignment at Column F+30, Step 8

  1. From the Prorata Salary Table, find $60,189.
  2. Divide by 2 = $30,094.50.
  3. 6 unit or hr/wk assignment div. by 15 units = 0.4FTE X $30,094.50 = $12,037.80
  4. $12,037.80 div. by 9 = $1,337.53 per pay period

Example 2: Biweekly pay for 15 hr/wk noncredit assignment at Column F+45, Step 4

  1. From the Prorata Salary Table, find $53,146
  2. Divide by 2 = $26,573
  3. 15 hr/wk assignment div. by 25 hrs/wk (FT load) = 0.6 FTE X $26,573 = $15,943.80
  4. $15,943.80 div. by 9 = $1,771.53 per pay period

Biweekly Pay for Full-time Faculty Salaries (Table 2)

Table 2 below shows the current biweekly full-time salary rates, including a 4.5% increase in pay effective Fall 2006. Using this table, you can make sure that you are being paid correctly during 2006/07.

A full-timer’s paycheck is determined by first calculating a daily pay rate by dividing annual salary by 365 days, then multiplying this by the 14 days in a pay period. The remainder of one’s salary for 2006/07, equaling the one day beyond 364 days, will be coupled with pay for the first pay period in 2007/08. Thus, full-timers will receive their full annual pay each year under this per diem pay method.
