UK 2006-2010 Strategic Plan

The UK 2006-2010 Strategic Plan was approved by the Board of Trustees in October 2006 (see www.uky.edu/UCAPP for the plan in its entirety).

Work-Life is included in two sections of the strategic plan, demonstrating the importance of work-life at the University of Kentucky.

A sensitivity to work-life concerns is listed as a value of the University.

Work-Life is included in Goal 1, Enhance the University’s Stature among its Peers, under Objective 4. 

Goal 1
Objective 4: The University will offer competitive salaries, benefits, and professional support to retain and attract outstanding faculty and staff.

Achieving Top 20 status hinges on the aggressive cultivation of current faculty members and strategic hiring of outstanding new ones. It also depends on the continuous professional development of university faculty and staff. Competitive compensation and progressive career advancement opportunities are essential resources for developing and retaining excellent faculty and staff. These efforts will foster and sustain and enjoyable professional climate in which employees can manage effectively the way they live, work, and raise their families.
