Pay Rates and Determining Pay for the University Bank & Agency Workers
In order to support principles of equal pay for work of equal value, the following hourly rates are linked to the first point on each of the nine University of Sheffield grades.
Hourly rates should be determined by first ascertaining the main duties/demands of the work and ascertaining which of the descriptions in the following table most closely fits with these demands.
The following rates are presented on an hourly basis. When determining hours for workers who will be carrying out demonstrating/teaching/lecturing activities etc, please ensure that an appropriate amount of time is agreed in advance to include time to undertake all related activities (e.g. sufficient non-contact time for preparation, teaching-related administration etc). Please see Determining number of contracted working hours for more information on this.
Please consult with your customary HR Adviser should the rates prove insufficient to secure the services of an individual.
Rates will be uplifted in line with negotiated increases in the single pay spine.
* Hourly Rates should be used both for work undertaken and for accrued annual leave. For further details relating to the calculation and processing of annual leave entitlements please refer to the section on Annual Leave arrangements for workers (see right hand link).
For agency workers it is important to note that the below rates will only apply, in line with the Agency Worker Regulations, with effect from 1 October 2011, once the agency work was attained a 12 week qualifying period, (accrued after this date), at the University of Sheffield. Until then, the hourly rate will be determined by their agency provider.
