  6. Merit Awards • Pool allocation by employee category cannot be supplemented or exceeded, with the exception that A&P merit funding can be used for Classified staff awards, but not vice-versa. • If an award is recommended for an employee that transfers to another UTSA position before the merit is paid, the merit award amounts, not percentages will follow the employee. • In all cases, the prior department head will make the decision about the amount of merit to be awarded based on performance in the previous position for the review period.

  7. Merit Awards • For E&G funded positions, the Budget Office will coordinate any transfers of merit funding to the new department. • All other funding sources must pay the merit increase for employees that have transferred into a non-E&G funded position due to an internal recruitment.
