Enter Summer Salary Information

This article provides instructions on how to report the days you will be receiving additional University summer compensation.

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

To enter your summer information:

1. Click on the "Enter My Summer Info" button.
2. Read the "Summer Salary" disclaimer and answer the question, "Do you or will you engage in Category I or II activities during the summer?"
   • If no:
     • You are not required to report additional University summer compensation information. However, in the event that you do or will engage in a Category I or II activity you can revisit this form, update your summer salary information, and report effort. To save changes select "Update Summer Info".
