Classification and Compensation
Compensation
The compensation program is part of a total rewards strategy that the CSU uses to attract, motivate, develop and retain highly skilled employees. In addition to base pay/salary, the CSU provides a generous comprehensive benefits program, deferred compensation, retirement and tuition waiver program. Fresno State also provides recognition programs, career and developmental opportunities, and encourages a focus on work-life benefits that are of interest to employees.
Total Compensation
Total compensation includes an employee's salary plus the monetary value of their benefits package. The value of an employee's benefits package varies depending on the employee/collective bargaining group and the type of benefits plan they choose. Information on benefits coverage by employee group can be found on the Fresno State Benefits website.
