Many nonunionized UCLA employees will receive a raise for the 2024-2025 fiscal year.

Chancellor Gene Block and Executive Chancellor and Provost Darnell Hunt announced a salary increase of 4.2% for eligible staff and academic employees in an email to faculty and staff Thursday afternoon.

As of April, the annual inflation rate in the United States – as measured by the change in the Consumer Price Index between April 2023 and April 2024 – is 3.4%, according to a May report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

“Our staff and faculty are the ones who help carry out UCLA’s important public mission of teaching, research and service,” Block and Hunt said in the statement. “We appreciate this opportunity to acknowledge your efforts and deep commitment to our university.”

The pay increase applies only to employees who are not union members, as their pay increases are provided for by union collective bargaining agreements.

Though the pay increase will depend on allocations to the University of California in the 2024-2025 state budget – and therefore subject to change – the statement said eligible, biweekly paid staff will see their pay increase starting June 23, and monthly paid staff will see their pay increase July 1 – when the state begins the 2024-2025 fiscal year.
