RE: California Minimum Wage Increase Effective January 1, 2023 


This is a reminder that the California minimum wage will increase from $15.00 per hour to $15.50 per hour effective January 1, 2023.  This change primarily impacts students in casual-restricted student positions. 

This change will be coordinated centrally by HR with the UCPath Center.  The process will identify active appointments in UCPath with an hourly rate of less than $15.50 per hour and will create a new pay rate of $15.50 per hour effective December 25, 2022 (the first day of the bi-weekly pay period closest to January 1, 2023).  This process is scheduled to take place in December.  

UCSB salary range minimums that fall below $15.50 per hour will be adjusted in TCS effective January 1, 2023.  The job titles impacted by this change are:
