The UCPath system implementation requires all campuses to distribute employer-paid benefits and other employment-related assessments using a benefits assessment method known as the composite rate method.
UC Santa Cruz will implement composite benefit rates (CBR) beginning in December 2019/January 2020 during UCPath adoption. Employee-paid benefits contribution amounts will not be affected.
The Composite Benefit Rate (CBR) structure will provide a simplified and predictable methodology for forecasting employee benefit costs charged to the University.
