FOIA Request to University of California San Francisco regarding employee compensation data for Fiscal Year 2025 on November 4, 2025.
A request has been submitted to the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) seeking access to public records under the California Public Records Act. The request, sent by Golden State Today, aims to obtain detailed information on employee compensation for all individuals employed by UCSF during Fiscal Year 2025.
The specific data fields requested include the employee’s name, gender (if recorded), age or year of birth (if not exempt), date of birth (if not exempt or limited to month/year), employer name, title or position, hire date, compensation amount (including base pay and any additional pay), compensation type (such as salary, hourly, stipend, bonus), and employment type (full-time or part-time).
Golden State Today emphasizes that access to these records is crucial for fulfilling their role in holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. As a media organization involved in gathering and reporting news, they have requested a fee waiver for this information.
