The salaries of UFT members employed by the Department of Education increased 3 percent on May 1 as part of the 2014 contract.

Members received a regular wage increase of 1 percent coupled with a 2 percent wage increase that is the first step of the phase-in of the 8 percent retroactive rate increase arising from the 2009–11 period.

All teachers and other pedagogues including paraprofessionals on the Q Bank payroll will receive the 3 percent increase in their May 15 paycheck.

Nurses, therapists, education officers, education analysts and other employees who are on the H Bank payroll will begin to see the 3 percent increase in their May 8 paycheck (for two days, May 1 and May 2). The May 22 check will be the first to reflect the 3 percent increase for the entire pay period.

All teachers and other pedagogues who work per diem or per session will first see the new pay rate in the June 3 paycheck for any days worked from May 1 to May 15. Paras per session will be calculated based on the new salary rate in their regular, semi-monthly check dated May 15.

If you have any questions, please contact a salary rep in your UFT borough office.
