5.6 Compensation
The archdiocese and its parishes, schools, and
operating units seek to provide just compensation within available
financial resources. At the time of hire, an employee's compensation depends on prior experience and education. The Human Resources Department and person in charge are responsible for establishing the rate of pay for a prospective employee.
Compensation
for school staff is set annually by the Department of Catholic Schools at recommended compensation levels,
reflected in written agreements for teaching staff, principals, and certain
administrators, and in hourly wage or salary scales for those who
do not have written agreements. The structure is reviewed annually by the Department of Catholic Schools and
adjusted as necessary within available financial resources.
Compensation for clergy and religious is set in accordance with archdiocesan policy as described in Religious Staff, Priest Personnel Policies and Guidelines, and Clergy – Deacons.
