UMS Nonexempt Pay Program


Perhaps the largest undertaking in designing and organizing the new Pay 
Program was developing job specifications to ensure that they included 
up-to-date information about the work performed in USM jobs.  Many job 
specifications had not been updated for years and no longer reflected the
actual knowledge, skills and abilities needed to perform various jobs.  
Beginning several years ago, the USM took an extensive look at job 
specifications across all campuses.  This review allowed us to take into 
account the similarities and differences between the institutions and to
create a set of  job class specifications that easily could be used on 
each campus.
Nonexempt Job Class Specifications
 approved for the University System of Maryland (USM) Pay Program
