2 Agenda Background why is change upon us? Retiree health care and cost-of-living adjustments Recommendations for new employees Probable choices for current employees Panel Q&A Solicitation of opinion for feedback to Systemwide Academic Council Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
3 Prepared for the University Committee on Planning and Budget and the University Committee on Faculty Welfare by Jim Chalfant and Helen Henry The Academic Senate has not yet developed a response to the PEB recommendations, so any opinions expressed should be interpreted as the views only of the authors of these slides slides. 10/4/2010 1
4 Substantial unfunded liabilities UCRP Retiree Health Uncompetitive salaries The UC Budget: Inadequate State support How will the PEB Recommendations help with these problems?? 10/4/2010 2
5 UCRP has an unfunded liability of $12.9 Billion (7/01/09) due to 20 years of no contributions to the Plan whose annual normal cost is 17.6%. Restarting contributions is overdue and absolutely necessary. A long-term financing plan is needed. Reducing Benefits? No effect on unfunded liability, only on normal cost for future benefits. 10/4/2010 3
6 UC salaries are below market averages for nearly all employee groups. Competitive benefits help, to varying degrees by different employee groups. Total remuneration is still uncompetitive Cutting benefits therefore further erodes our competitiveness. 10/4/2010 4
7 State support is inadequate and far from historical i levels, l posing a direct threat to UC s excellence. Alternative revenue sources are welcome and critical, but there should be no illusions about their potential to fully replace state support. The current budget situation cannot be an excuse to delay dealing with the unfunded liability. The unfunded liability grows at 7.5% annually. $2 of non-state contributions i are lost for every $1 of state contributions that are not made. 10/4/2010 5
8 Retiree health cuts cannot fix the operating budget. We do not pre-fund retiree health. The unfunded liability means that it will be 20 years before benefits cuts could make a difference in UC s operating budget. Developing a long-term plan for benefits is critical, but the report misses an opportunity to document the need for competitiveness. Benefits cuts are not a solution to the budget problem. 10/4/2010 6
9 Providing incentives to delay retirement Eligibility changes for retiree health benefits Increases in targeted retirement ages A long-term financing strategy that recognizes that we cannot invest the problem away Achieving competitive total remuneration is required for UC excellence Faculty and Staff need salary increases with current benefits We need even greater salary increases to compensate for reduced d benefits to remain where we are now 10/4/2010 7
10 New tier plans have No effect on accrued pension liability. Little effect on future liability for years. No effect on the operating budget for 20 years. It is impossible to build or maintain a great University by paying faculty and staff 85 cents on the dollar. Savings from cutting benefits are illusory. 10/4/2010 8
11 Structured to incentivize retirement at a later age Reduce UC s maximum contribution to 70% of premiums Eligibility for maximum contribution requires age 65 and 20 years service Half at age 60 (i.e. 35% of premium) Reduced by service years < 20, also linearly We need to be looking at pre-funding, which reduces the GASB liability Affordability for retirees 10/4/2010 9

18 Additional comments - Berkeley Committee on University-Emeriti Relations y Partial protection against CPI increases above should ether be restored to something like its current form, or the pledge to retain purchasing power of pensions at 80% of purchasing power must be made a vested right Adequate COLA especially important because of proposal to increase the health care contribution that retirees pay at present from ~ 12% to 30% of the premium, increasing over a period of six years We recommend against a 401(a) (17) restoration program, which would substantially enhance the pension benefits of a small group of very highly compensated employees, whose compensation exceed IRS limits for coverage by a qualified defined benefit pension plan This restoration plan is being proposed at the same time as the report proposes that pension benefits of all other employees be curtailed. The response to the dissenting statement contains some seriously misleading statements., e.g. the response states that experts advise that employees need 70 80% income replacement of pre retirement income. We are not aware of any such expert opinion i and are informed dthat t the task kforce itself discussed d internally income replacement income in the range of 78% to 94%. Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
19 Employer Contribution : ARC starting FYB2011 or Modified Ramp Up % of Covered Payroll- Emplo oyer Cost 25.0% 23.0% 21.0% 19.0% 17.0% 15.0% 13.0% 11.0% 9.0% 7.0% 5.0% ARC Gap: $4.4 billion ARC Cost = Max 22% 20% for Options A, B, and C UC Modified Ramp Up = Max 20% ARC Cost (Option A ) Modified Ramp Up (Option C) Modified Ramp Up (Option B) Modified Ramp Up (Option A) * Assumes new tier in place by FYB2013, 7% contribution for employees that stay in the current UCRP plan 10/4/
20 1. No pension plan should be adopted if it is competitive only after future hypothetical ti salary increases. 2. Option A is unacceptable because it would not be competitive even if the salary gap were closed. 3. Options B and C could be competitive if the salary gap is closed. 4. It can be argued that Option C is superior to Option B for simplicity and transparency. 10/4/
21 5. If Choice between remaining in UCRP or joining a new tier is implemented, the employee contribution for UCRP should not exceed 7%. 6. We oppose attempts to undermine the Total Remuneration studies and their results. 7. We support the cuts in Retiree Health described in the Report but oppose any further cuts in this area. 8. We support steps proposed and taken to put UCRP on a sounder financial footing. 10/4/
22 The budget problem (and potential shrinkage of work force) arises from the unfunded liability, which we have no way to reduce. A new tier will initially apply to only a few people, so there is little reduction in future liability early on in any Oti Option. Borrowing from STIP* (at 2.5-3%) to address the unfunded d liability results in identical effects of Options A, B, and C on the operating budget for two decades. *STIP = Short Term Investments Pool 10/4/
23 Under any of the options, there will be fewer employees than now, and there may be layoffs. Since they cost the same until 2030, Options B and C will not cause any more layoffs than Option A. Option A could even cause more harm, since it requires higher salaries just to match Options B and C in total remuneration. Option A cannot be competitive unless salaries move to levels above market. 10/4/
24 Results when cash compensation is increased to market (e.g., ~10% average increase for Ladder Rank Faculty and ~18% average increase for staff) Pension Market Value Option A Option B Option C LRF -32% -21% -18% Staff (All Segments) -32% -9% +2% Total Remuneration Results LRF -2% -1% -0.8% Staff (All Segments) +2% +3% +4% 10/4/
25 Additional comments - Berkeley Committee on Faculty Welfare Option A would result in our trying to recruit new faculty who will pay some of the highest pension contributions in the country for a markedly inferior retirement benefit. Option B represents a reduction from current benefits for employees earning less than $110,000, even taking coordination with Social Security into account. Keepingretirees financially soundshould should bea primary objective ofanypension system. We support the language to simplify the design of the COLA, but we strongly object to wording that seems to shift the COLA from being a firm pledge to little more than a vague hope The option for current employees of staying in a plan with the current benefit level or moving to the new tier, whatever it may be, does not represent a useful choice unless there is an understanding about the cost of continuing in UCRP. The contribution level is described as 7% or more ; we have heard 10% discussed. The task force report needs to be clearer about the nature of those changes. Furthermore, we believe the planned increase in retirees share of health benefit costs from the current 11% to 30% should ldbe reflected in the calculation l of the retiree COLA described above Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
26 Items for Comment Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
27 Letter from University Committee on Faculty Welfare September 15 At its meeting of September 10, 2010, the University Committee on Faculty Welfare (UCFW), continued its discussion of the work of the President s Task Force on Post Employment Benefits. While the committee has not yet endorsed a final option, UCFW supports the statements and sentiments contained in the Dissenting Statement including the categorical rejection of Option A, and we ask that the Academic Council endorse them, too, and communicate that endorsement to the president. A minority of committee members declined to endorse the Dissenting Statement on the grounds that it did not go far in enough in repudiating Option B, as well. In particular, the minority felt that it was misleading to regard Options B and C as similar, given the impact of integration with Social Security, which is implicit in Option B. Accordingly, we offer the following motion: That the Academic Council echo UCFW in strongly endorsing the Dissenting Statement t t and communicate that t support to the president. Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
28 Whereas: Letter from University Committee on Faculty Welfare September 22 A competitive pension plan that allows employees a comfortable, secure retirement is a crucial piece of the university s benefit structure; Retirement benefits are a significant component of an employee s total remuneration; The University cannot recruit or retain an excellent workforce without competitive retirement benefits; and A pension plan must be clear enough so that employees can make informed choices in their retirement planning; Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
29 Letter from University Committee on Faculty Welfare September 22 The committee is resolved that: UCFW strongly opposes Option A, on the grounds that it is uncompetitive across essentially all employee groups. UCFW recommends Option C over Option B, on the grounds that Option C is simpler for employees to understand and for UC to administer than Option B, and Option B has the same employer normal cost as Option C. However, UCFW would be willing to support Option B instead of Option C if staff preferred it. Option C provides a higher pension benefit than Option B for lower and middle income employees, paid for by a higher employee contribution by those employees. If current employees are offered the choice to continue under the current UCRP plan terms for their future service, UCFW strongly opposes requiring an employee contribution in excess of 7% for those who choose to remain under the current plan terms. UCFW s support for Options B and C is contingent on the creation of a credible plan to raise faculty and staff salaries to competitive levels l over the next three years before the implementation of the new tier. Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
30 Letter from University Committee on Faculty Welfare September 22 Therefore, we offer the following: Motion: That the Academic Council endorse the UCFW resolution above and communicate that endorsement to the President. Berkeley Division of the Academic Senate, University of California
