  6. Increments and relativities • Assimilation rules have been negotiated with the unions • These apply to all staff groups • At implementation hierarchies affected • If relativities seem extreme discuss with line manager • Establish what kind of experience being compared • May decide to put in for an appeal or re-evaluation

New grade H & Overtime New Grade H • Didn’t match to profile “a” - full UBJES evaluation • Some instances the full evaluation resulted in a new grade H, where applicable. • Consistency with other University roles Overtime • Flexible working • University overtime procedures and prior authorisation
