A brief description of how the institution ensures that its lowest-paid workers (including contractors, if applicable) receive sustainable compensation:

It is the policy of the State of North Carolina to compensate its employees sufficiently to encourage excellent performance and to maintain labor market competitiveness. The State Personnel Commission conducts annual compensation surveys for presentation to the State legislature. State policy may be found at http://www.osp.state.nc.us/manuals/manual99/genpay.pdf.

The UNC Office of Human Resources uses local market data to ensure it is offering both a fair living wage and that the University is competitive with local employers. In 2008, the Chancellor reviewed and raised the salaries of the University's lowest paid employees by increasing the minimum annual salary to $25,000 for full-time permanent employees.
