Spectrum: Moderate Partisan Bill (Democrat 17-2)
Status: Engrossed on March 3 2010 - 50% progression, died in chamber
Action: 2010-03-17 - Not enrolled due to technical deficiency

The purpose of this bill is to create "FACTS for Higher Education" by establishing Fair, Accountable, Credible, Transparent, and Systematic mechanisms to determine classification status and compensation for classified employees in public higher education organizations. It repeals certain provisions relating to higher education personnel generally, moves several current provisions to new locations, and rewrites three existing articles. The bill sets forth certain specific powers, duties, and limitations of the Higher Education Policy Commission, the Council for Community and Technical College Education, and each state institution of higher education relating to personnel. It makes legislative findings, defines terms, provides for promulgation of rules, requires regular audits of human resources functions, and describes and establishes dates for periodic reports to the Legislature. The bill sets percentage limits for certain types of employees; establishes implementation and effective dates, requires review and approval of certain budget and rulemaking functions; provides terms and conditions for certain employment practices; requires salary comparisons among classes of employees and certain of their peers; and authorizes and requires certain employee benefits and rights. The bill removes codified salary caps for classified employees under specific circumstances, provides for establishing market salary structures and a minimum salary schedule, requires periodic market salary studies, and specifies uses for study findings. The bill requires employee performance evaluations and training for supervisory personnel who administer evaluations, sets limits for exercising certain operational flexibilities, establishes implementation goals for certain statutes and rules, and assigns certain implementation responsibilities.
