One of the best resources for congregational administrators, other staff, personnel committees, and congregational boards who support staff is the UUA’s Office of Church Staff Finances’ monthly publication, the "Compensation and Staffing News.” This newsletter shares not only the best practices for congregations to be good employers, but also shifts in law around employment, changes in UUA staff support and benefit programs, and much more.

In the October newsletter, there is a description of the proposed changes in the system of the UUA’s Salary Recommendations. These shifts are significant, approaching the question of compensation guidelines for church staff in a way that is very different from how they have been presented before. The newsletter has a wonderful article on the proposed changes and the reason for the transition, as well as ways you can learn more about the proposed changes and provide feedback on them.

So, if you have not signed up for the Compensation and Staffing News, you can do so on the UUA Office of Church Staff Finances Sign-up page, Read their October Newsletter.
