Effort Compensation Compliance (ECC)
Effort reporting is the method used to confirm to sponsors that the effort spent on a sponsored agreement reasonably reflects the salary and wages charged to that agreement. An effort report is an after-the-fact reporting of activities for which the employee was compensated by the institution.
Effort reports are required for all employees paid from sponsored agreements. If any portion of pay was from a sponsored agreement during the reporting period, an effort report is required.
Effort Reporting at ÃÛÑ¿TV will be completed on a semesterly basis. This is a two-stage process consisting of a Pre-review period of 15 days as well as a Confirmation period of 30 days. The Pre-Review period starts one month after the final day of that pay period.
