Unicamp's Chamber of Administration (CAD) approved this Tuesday afternoon (4) two minutes of deliberation that bring important consequences for the Career of Teaching, Research and Extension Support Professionals (Paepe), in which employees are included. technical-administrative department of the University. The first document deals with the use of resources from the 2018 budget to promote salary reduction. The second concerns the readjustment of the Paepe Career, which now has vertical progression and better distinction of levels. At the same meeting, the CAD also approved the budget distribution proposal for the 2019 financial year.
During the session, the Vice-Rector of University Development, Professor Marisa Beppu, explained to CAD members that the proposed use of resources from the 2018 budget for Carreira Paepe aims to promote the reduction of salaries. The measure, according to her, should benefit between 1.700 and 1.800 employees. To make the process that will elect workers to benefit from the initiative more fair and objective, explained the teacher, an index was established to calculate the level of salary flattening.
The higher the index, the greater the flattening [Simulator]. “According to the criteria we defined, employees who meet the following conditions are more flattened: their salary today is very close to the minimum wage, they have received less reference earnings since 2003, an important moment in the implementation of the Career, and they have been working longer”, he detailed. the dean of University Development. Once the index is applied, the classification and descending ordering of eligible servers will take place. The final decision on those who will actually be awarded a reference will be made by the units and bodies, through collegiate bodies. The cutoff line will follow the availability of resources.
The CAD also approved the draft deliberation with a view to readjusting Carreira Paepe. Among the main new proposals are the adoption of vertical progression and the reduction and better distinction of the levels of technical-administrative employees. The proposal, formulated by a Working Group (GT) created specifically for this purpose, had already been previously approved by the Internal Employee Development Chamber (CIDF), which is subordinate to the CAD.
Professor Marisa Beppu pointed out that the design of the proposal meets the expectations of employees, who longed for a system that had clearer levels of stratification, so that they could more easily identify a path to follow within the Career. “The need to adopt an evaluation mechanism for progression that values merit was also clear. All these aspects were worked on by the GT, discussed with the sectoral evaluation committees (CSAs) and analyzed within the scope of the CIDF”, detailed the dean. The next step in the process of readjusting the Paepe Career will be to define the systematization and measurement of the requirements that will serve as the basis for making assessments and determining progressions.

Unicamp's budget distribution proposal for 2019 was also approved at this Tuesday's CAD session. According to the recommendation of the Budget and Heritage Commission (COP), linked to the University Council (Consu), the University's budget for the period will consist of R$ 2,385 billion [revenues from ICMS collection], plus R$ 55 millions of own resources. The projected deficit for the year is around R$169,09 million. Rector Marcelo Knobel noted that although the institution has not yet reached budget balance, the current situation is significantly better than that of the period in which the current Administration took over. “When we took over, Unicamp’s expenses represented 117% of the budget. Currently, they are around 103%. It’s an important step forward, but we still have to continue doing our homework, that is, being very responsible with the University’s expenses.”
Despite the fact that financial balance has not yet been achieved, noted the rector, the 2019 budget proposal allocates significant resources to important activities of the institution, such as granting scholarships, carrying out renovations and new physical works and applying them to teaching careers. , researchers and technical administrative staff. “I think we are going through the most critical moment. In financial terms, we left the ICU and started having semi-intensive care”, compared Knobel. The 2019 budget proposal will be analyzed by Consu in an extraordinary session scheduled for December 11th.
