Salary Inversions. It is the intent of Northern Michigan University to remedy inappropriate salary inversions resulting from promotions. The University and the Association agree to institute a Faculty Salary Inversion Review Committee, composed of three (3) members appointed by the Association and three (3) members appointed by the PVPA A to monitor salary inversions that may arise from the promotion structure in the 2021-2026 Agreement and to recommend adjustments to the PVPAA. The Review Committee shall meet and make its recommendations to the PVPA A as soon after salary increases have been implemented as practicable. A potential salary inversion arises when the salary of a newly promoted faculty member is greater than colleagues at the same rank and in the same discipline. Not every inversion needs to be adjusted, however. If a faculty member with extraordinary attainments and accompanying above average salary is promoted and has a post-promotion salary larger than others at the new rank, then there is no prima facie reason to adjust the inverted salaries.
