What are the UUA Benefit Recommendations?

UUA Benefit Recommendations are designed to promote and be consistent with Unitarian Universalist Principles. First adopted at the 1995* General Assembly as Fair Compensation Guidelines, these guidelines challenge us to give life to our faith by committing to justice and equity in human relations for all congregational staff.  

*In February 2020, the UUA shifted from Compensation Guidelines to Compensation Standards. The new UUA Compensation Standards include legal requirements for pay and benefit administration, while continuing to provide recommendations for salaries and benefits.
