UHart will remain closed on Monday, Feb. 23. There will be no in-person classes held on Monday. Please note that when a campus closing prevents an in-person class from meeting at its scheduled time, faculty may opt to conduct classes or provide assignments online. Students should check Blackboard and their email regularly on such days to learn of any alternate arrangements. Online and remote courses are not affected by campus closings and meet as scheduled.

Minimum Wage Increase

August 07, 2019
Submitted By: Lynn Thibodeau

Connecticut law specifies that all employers must pay their employees enough to meet the state’s minimum wage requirement.  The minimum wage in Connecticut is the greater of (1) a rate established by the legislature or (2) ½ of 1% higher than the federal minimum wage, rounded to the nearest cent. 

HRD and Payroll are working together to adjust affected individuals below $11.00 per hour to the mandatory minimum wage rate effective October 1, 2019.  Departments will not need to submit a revised ePAF and/or Roster Form unless you wish to pay the student/temporary worker more than the mandatory minimum wage. 

If you have any questions, please call your designated HR Service Partner.
