OUTLINE:
I. THE GROUP MUST DEFINE THE IMPORTANCE OF COMPENSATION IN THE ORGANIZATION.
– Need to control costs to remain solvent and competitive– Need to remain competitive with internal and external
labor markets– Need to use pay to motivate employees
Ask an entrepreneur

Related Topics:
A.) Need to control costs to remain solvent and competitive
• Best Practice (- these are a set of compensation practices that are good for all firms.
• Contingency: – organizations will have pay systems that fit
with their business strategy– organizations that have “fit” will outperform
those without “fit”

Best Practice Examples*
• High wages• Guarantee of Employment Security• Use incentives; share gains• Employee Ownership• Participation & Empowerment• Teams• Smaller pay differences

Related topicsB. Need to remain competitive with internal and
external labor markets.
Data to be gathered for internal labor market: (must have at least two companies with the same nature of business)
• Comparison of Jobs• Jobs worth to the Employer– Similarities and differences in work content– Relative contribution to organization objectives• Accomplished through job evaluation
![Page 7: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

• Value of the job to the labor market (Know more about the scope of duties and responsibilities of each each position through further research.
• Assessed through wage surveys

Related topicsc.) Need to use pay to motivate employees• The most obvious reward is pay, but
there are many others, including:– promotions– desirable work assignments– peer recognition– work freedom– (the group must be able identify how the owner
of the firm motivates its employee with the pay they give)

II. DETERMINE THE COMPENSATION COST PER HOUR
• Market price; willing EMPLOYEE and willing EMPLOYER
• Issues of justice and equity
To somehow analyze the job worth

Job Evaluation and the Pay Structure
•Job analysis information determines the relative value, or rank, of each job in the organization.
Research wage information at the Bureau of Labor Statistics
http://www.bls.gov/bls/blswage.htm
Job evaluation helps set pay structure.
Other pay structure factors:labor market conditionscollective bargainingindividual skill differences

Job Evaluation and the Pay Structure
Job Evaluation Methods
A committee places jobs in a simple rank order from highest (worth highest pay) to lowest.
Jobs placed in grades to compare their descriptions to the benchmarked jobs. Look for a common denominator (skills, knowledge, responsibility).
Jobs are rated and allocated points on several criteria. Jobs with similar point totals are placed in similar pay grades. Offers the greatest stability.

Job Evaluation and the Pay Structure
Establishing the Pay Structure
compensationsurveys
Used to gather factual data on pay rates for other organizations. Information is often collected on associated employee benefits as well.
Designates pay ranges for jobs of similar value. Results in a logical hierarchy of wages, in overlapping ranges.
wagecurves
wagestructure
Drawn by plotting job evaluation data (such as job points or grades) against pay rates (actual or from survey data).Indicates whether pay structure is logical.

Job Evaluation and the Pay Structure
External factors also influence pay structure.
geographic differences (local supply and demand)
labor supply (low supply = higher wages and vice versa)
competition (HR can match, lead, or lag)
cost of living as determined by the CPI
collective bargaining (unions)
employees must know how the pay structure is derived
![Page 14: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
III. THE BASIC PAY MODEL• Compensation plan efficiency based on:
– Internal consistency– External competitiveness– Employee contributions to the firm
Compensation:– “All forms of financial returns and tangible
services and benefits employees receive as part of an employment relationship”
![Page 15: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Basic Question• Can we satisfy everybody?• Perceptions of fairness come from:
– Actual pay amounts– Relative pay amounts on internal basis– Relative pay amounts on external basis– Pay administration
![Page 16: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Determining the relative value of jobs within the organization.

Compensable Factors• “Characteristics in the work that
the organization values, that help it pursue its strategy and achieve its objectives”
![Page 18: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

• Information on compensable factors to be researched by the group:

IV. THE CONCEPT OF EQUAL PAY ACT• JOB EVALUATION• RANKING• CLASSIFICATION
![Page 21: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Job Evaluation
• Determining the relative value of jobs within the organization
• General basis:– Effort– Skill– Responsibility– Working conditions
• Approaches– Whole job (ranking, classification)– Decomposed (point factor)
![Page 22: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Ranking
• How to:– Order the jobs from highest to lowest
• Pro and con– Easy to use and to explain to employees– Burdensome for any but the small organization– Very difficult to add jobs / re-evaluate jobs– Very subjective; it is difficult to say what criteria are being
used, so difficult to justify/explain to employees
![Page 23: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CLASSIFICATION
• How to:– Set up grades or categories with descriptions of the
necessary responsibility, skill, effort and working conditions (or other factors as desired)
– Include benchmark or representative jobs to serve as anchors; these should be
• Common and well-known• Stable content• Truly representative of grade• Can be priced on external market (RECENTLY DONE)

GOVERNMENT SCHEDULE FACTORS
• Knowledge required by the position– Nature or kind of knowledge and
skills needed– How the knowledge and skills are
used in doing the work• Supervisory controls
– How the work is assigned– The employee’s responsibility for
carrying out the work– How the work is reviewed
• Guidelines– The nature of guidelines for
performing the work– The judgement needed to apply
the guidelines or develop new guides
• Complexity– The nature of the assignment– The difficulty in identifying what
needs to be done– The difficulty and originality
involved in performing the work• Scope and effort
– The purpose of the work– The impact of the work product
or service• Personal contacts• Purpose of contacts• Physical demands• Work environment

Point Factor Plan
• The most commonly used type of job evaluation method
• Make the criteria for comparisons explicit, unlike ranking and classification
• The criteria for classification (the compensable factors) are related to the strategy of the business; they are the factors valued by or of high worth to the firm
![Page 28: Compensation Theory, Job Evaluation and Pay Administration](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050722/543eb64cb1af9f700b8b47b2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Selecting Compensable Factors• These should be:
– Based on the work performed– Based on the strategy and values of the organization– Acceptable and considered to be fair by all concerned
parties• As a result, compensable factors should be developed by each
organization, rather than using an off-the-shelf plan• Basic group of compensable factors:
– Skill– Effort– Responsibility– Working conditions
