University of California Employee Pay

As part of its commitment to transparency and public accountability, each year the University of California publicly reports employee pay data. The report covers UC's career faculty and staff employees, as well as part-time, temporary and student employees.

UC has released its employee pay data for the calendar year 2023. A summary of UC's 2023 payroll is available at
https://www.ucop.edu/institutional-research-academic-planning/content-analysis/employees/compensation-reporting.html

UC compensation information for the calendar year 2023 has also been reported to the California State Controller's Office.

Below is a searchable database of payroll data. It may be used to search for pay information on an individual UC employee or a group of employees (e.g., employees with the same job titles) in the desired calendar year. By clicking on the category headings at the top of the display, data may also be sorted by location, salary level, and other criteria.
