Salary revision for 2024
The 2024 salary negotiations are now completed for everyone. The new salaries apply from October 1 2024, which means that those who have received a higher salary have recieved a retroactive payment from that date.
If you have compensation from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency (Försäkringskassan), it is important to inform them of your new salary.

Local negotiation or salary-setting discussions?
Most Saco-S members at Uppsala University are covered by local negotiations, which are prepared through salary dialogues. Only the Saco-S members at the University Administration, Internal Audit, Innovation Partnership Office and the University Library has salary-setting discussions instead.
Numberless agreement
Saco-S's agreement is actually numberless, but the departments at the University have of course been given numbers to stick to. The University has made it more clear lately that it is the salary after the revision that is in focus and not the increase itself. It's about getting the right salary, not about the increase in percent. This means that if two employees have approximately equal work tasks and approximately equivalent performance, then the salary should also be approximately equal. This in turn may mean that if one had a lower salary before the revision, that one may receive a higher increase than the one who had a higher salary before the revision. Sometimes when there are large salary differences, the adjustments can take more than one salary revision to come to terms with.
The doctoral student salaries
The doctoral students have a salary ladder and it is revised in a special order. It is usually revised as of October 1, just as with other salaries at the University.

Negotiation form
Saco-S at Uppsala University sends out negotiation forms at the beginning of September for members to fill in and send back to us. We use the form to propose a new salary for you and to argue for the salary we have proposed.
Please note that doctoral students and those who have salary-setting dialogues do not need to send us a form.
Salary seminars
