A brief description of how the institution ensures that its lowest-paid workers (including contractors, if applicable) receive sustainable compensation:
For the 5242 employees on the New York State payroll wages are determined by negotiations between the New York State Governor’s Office of Employee Relations and the labor unions representing the employees. For the employees not having union representation the University follows the Fair Labor Standards Act, NYS Labor Laws, the Federal Minimum Wage Guidelines and the Department of Labor Prevailing Wage Guidelines for contractors. The University provides a benefit package to fulltime employees with a value in excess of 40% of the wage package. The WNY area is also an affordable area to reside in terms of housing, consumables, transportation, etc. In addition the University seeks to attract, retain and motivate competent personnel along with a generous benefit package and above average working conditions, ensuring that employees receive an overall sustainable wage.
