As an academic year faculty, what are my summer salary reporting requirements?

According to UC policy, academic-year faculty are allowed 8 hours (1 day) of professional activity for each 1 week that they receive University salary during the summer. The policy allows for a maximum of 57 compensated days during the summer. If your summer salary is coming in part from an external funding agency, please check with that agency regarding their policy in conflict of commitment.

The information you provide in the "Summer Salary Info" section of your UC OATS workspace will determine the allowable hours of outside professional activities during your campus summer term. A summer threshold bar will be generated to show the maximum allowed hours of outside professional activities (OPA) and the reported hours that count towards your summer threshold. 

Review the step-by-step instructions to learn your reporting requirements and how to report the days you will be receiving University salary during the summer.
