Change in Pay Rate for Student Employees

See UCSD Implementing Procedures, Section 30/Compensation (PDF) for more information.

 Check with your Student Employment Liaision for current year's eligibility.

The Student Employment Office now utilizes a new method for submitting student equity increase requests. Department HR Contacts must log into UC San Diego’s Employee Center (via the Services and Support Portal) to submit requests via the Student Employee Equity Increase form. 

Additional guides and resources can be found below.

• Student Equity Request Increase KBA
• Student Equity Request Increase Quick Reference Guide
• Step-by-Step Submission Guide (individual student employee equity request)
• Step-by-Step Submission Guide (multiple student employee equity request)
• Step-by-Step Department Approval Guide
• 8/29 Go-Live Zoom Meeting Recording 

Please note that as part of this new equity submission workflow, both the student employee’s Supervisor and the official Department Head will need to approve the request within the Employee Center before SEO can review it. The Supervisor and Department Head will both receive automatic emails notifying them when they must approve a request.

Health Systems hiring Managers and Supervisors may submit requests for equity directly via this new equity form, rather than the HHR Team. Health employees will need to use their non-Health UCSD email address when logging into the Services and Support Portal in order to access the equity form. 

Health Systems hiring Managers and supervisors will need to contact Health HR to obtain the information above if not known.  

Disclaimer: ONLY Department HR Contacts or People Leaders may sumbit an equity increase for an employee. Employees cannot submit an equity increase on their own behalf.
