The assignment supplement constitutes compensation for the special responsibility associated with the management assignment. 

Assignment supplement according to guidelines on management assignments

Those who hold positions as vice-rector, dean, pro-dean, vice-dean, head of department, deputy head of department, or director receive an assignment supplement according to the Guidelines on Management Assignments at Lund University, STYR 2023/1160.

The assignment supplement constitutes compensation for the special responsibility associated with the management assignment, and the specific tasks that follow from the assignment should be included in the annual working time.

Only two management assignments can be held during the same period. If two assignments are held simultaneously, the lower assignment supplement is halved.

Assignment supplement for directors of studies/equivalent and other assignments

The faculty board has the mandate to decide on assignment supplements for directors of studies/equivalent.

Assignment supplements for other assignments than those mentioned above may also occur, but these are applied very restrictively and only after a decision by the faculty board.

Repatriation or post-supplement

Certain management functions have the right to so-called repatriation after a completed assignment to be able to resume previous tasks. In some cases, a certain post-supplement may also be provided. Whether repatriation is granted is stated in the individual manager's contract, and the post-supplement is regulated in the Guidelines on Management Assignments at Lund University.
