University Fringe Benefit Rates for Fiscal 2022

Syracuse University has negotiated new fringe benefit rates with the federal government for fiscal year 2022 (July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022). These rates will be used for charging both sponsored (funds 13 and 91) and non-sponsored restricted (funds 15 and 16) chartstrings.

The University has also established the fringe benefit rates to be used for unrestricted chartstrings (funds 11 and 14) under RCM for fiscal year 2022.

The University’s fringe benefits expense is distributed to responsibility centers, Syracuse Abroad administration, facilities, and administration and technology units as a percent of actual payroll expense.  Fringe benefit rates were established considering the cost of the benefits available to employees in each classification (i.e., regular, summer, part‐time faculty union, graduate assistant and temporary wages) as a percent of the payroll in the same classification.
