The following message is from SMPH Human Resources
Back in June 2020 the UW–Madison Office of Human Resources (OHR) informed us that UW–Madison, in consultation with the UW System, had decided to extend the Title and Total Compensation (TTC) Project timeline, delaying the scheduled implementation of new titles and position descriptions until 2021.
We have now received confirmation that a new implementation date has been set for November 7, 2021. Read more about this in an April 5 message to all UW–Madison employees from Mark Walters, Chief Human Resources Officer and Associate Vice Chancellor of the Office of Human Resources.
Timeline differences
SMPH will be following a slightly different timeline to allow for better preparation. SMPH aims to have all employee mapping complete by May 31. This will allow supervisors and HR time to create position descriptions and facilitate employee conversations over the summer (by September 10 at the latest). Then the school will move forward with implementation on November 7.
