The School of Pharmacy A/B Salary Policy defines the minimum
salary offset from external sources of funding required to support
a 100 percent salary payment to an A/B faculty member. See http://depts.washington.edu/pharinfo/acadpolicies/ABSalary.html
The policy also recognizes that A/B faculty may face periods when
the B portion of their salary is under/unfunded. Specifically:
If the B salary component funding decreases, the following
options are available:
-
The salary distribution associated with the B salary component
is reduced; or
-
Alternative applicable sources of funds may be used if
consistent with the requirements of the funding source and approved
by the Department Chair and Dean. Factors to be considered by
the Chair and Dean include:
-
The extent to which the use of the proposed alternative
source of funding would adversely affect the ability to support
graduate students, post-docs, research or program supplies
and contracted services.
-
Indications that there is a feasible plan and time-line
for restoration of the lost funding.
This policy places limits on the type, amount and duration of funding
that may be used as a bridge to support faculty through periods
of low external support.
With the approval of the department chair and dean, non-state sources
of funds may be used as long as such support is allowed. This excludes
the use of designated budgets such as those associated with grants,
contracts and restricted gifts, but it could include the use of
Designated Operating Fund (74-xxxx) budgets, Research Cost Recovery
(75-xxxx) budgets, and unrestricted gift funds. State General Operating
Fund (07-xxxx) budgets can never be used.
Such bridge support cannot exceed 10 percent of the faculty’s
full (A+B) salary for a period of six months, or an equivalent amount
distributed over a longer or shorter period of time not to exceed
one year. For example, 20 percent may be provided for threee months,
or five percent over 12 months. Bridge support may be offered only
once to a given faculty member.
