Job Evaluation
• A job evaluation is a
systematic way of
determining the
value/worth of a job in
relation to other jobs in
an organization.
![Page 5: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Job Evaluation
• It tries to make a
systematic comparison
between jobs to assess
their relative worth for the
purpose of establishing a
rational pay structure.
![Page 6: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Job Evaluation
• Job evaluation needs to
be differentiated from
job analysis. Job analysis
is a systematic way of
gathering information
about a job.
![Page 7: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Job Evaluation
• Every job evaluation
method requires at least
some basic job analysis in
order to provide factual
information about the
jobs concerned.
![Page 8: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Job Evaluation
• Thus, job evaluation
begins with job analysis
and ends at that point
where the worth of a job is
ascertained for achieving
pay equity between jobs.
![Page 9: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Job Evaluation ProcessCompensation Management
![Page 10: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• The process of job evaluation
involves the following steps:
– Gaining acceptance.
– Creating job evaluation committee.
– Finding the jobs to be evaluated.
– Analyzing and preparing job
description.
– Selecting the method of evaluation.
– Classifying jobs.
![Page 11: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Gaining acceptance:
– Before undertaking job evaluation,
top management must explain the
aims) and uses of the programme to
the employees and unions. To
elaborate the program further, oral
presentations could be made. Letters,
booklets could be used to classify all
relevant aspects of the job evaluation
programme.
![Page 12: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Creating job evaluation
committee:
– It is not possible for a single
person to evaluate all the key jobs
in an organization. Usually a job
evaluation committee consisting
of experienced employees, union
representatives and HR experts is
created to set the ball rolling.
![Page 13: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Finding the jobs to be evaluated:
– Every job need not be evaluated.
This may be too taxing and costly.
Certain key jobs in each
department may be identified.
While picking up the jobs, care
must be taken to ensure that they
represent the type of work
performed in that department.
![Page 14: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Analyzing and preparing
job description:
– This requires the
preparation of a job
description and also an
analysis of job needs for
successful performance .
![Page 15: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Selecting the method of
evaluation:
– The most important method
of evaluating the jobs must be
identified now, keeping the
job factors as well as
organizational demands in
mind.
![Page 16: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Classifying jobs:
– The relative worth of various jobs in an
organisation may be found out after
arranging jobs in order of importance
using criteria such as skill requirements,
experience needed, under which
conditions job is performed, type of
responsibilities to be shouldered,
degree of supervision needed, the
amount of stress caused by the job, etc.
![Page 17: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Job Evaluation Process
• Classifying jobs:
– Weights can be assigned to
each such factor. When we
finally add all the weights, the
worth of a job is determined.
The points may then be
converted into monetary
values.
![Page 18: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 19: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation
• It tries to link
pay with the
requirements
of the job.
![Page 20: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation
• It offers a systematic procedure
for determining the relative
worth of jobs. Jobs are ranked
on the basis of rational criteria
such as skill, education,
experience, responsibilities,
hazards, etc., and are priced
accordingly.
![Page 21: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation
• An equitable wage structure is
a natural outcome of job
evaluation. An unbiased job
evaluation tends to eliminate
salary inequities by placing jobs
having similar requirements in
the same salary range.
![Page 22: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation
• Employees as well as unions
participate as members of
job evaluation committees,
while determining rate
grades for different jobs.
This helps in solving wage
related grievances quickly.
![Page 23: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation
• Job evaluation, when
conducted properly and
with care, helps in the
evaluation of new jobs.
![Page 24: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Benefits of Job Evaluation
• It points out possibilities of
more appropriate use of the
plant's labour force by
indicating jobs that need
more or less skilled workers
than those who are manning
these jobs currently.
![Page 25: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Methods of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 26: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Methods of Job Evaluation
• There are primarily
three methods of job
evaluation:
– (1) ranking.
– (2) classification.
– (3) Factor comparison
method or Point
method.
![Page 27: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Ranking Method of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 28: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Ranking method
• Perhaps the simplest method
of job evaluation is the
ranking method. According to
this method, jobs are
arranged from highest to
lowest, in order of their value
or merit to the organization.
obs can also be arranged
according to the relative
difficulty in performing them.
![Page 29: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Ranking method
• The jobs are examined as a
whole rather than on the
basis of important factors in
the job; the job at the top of
the list has the highest value
and obviously the job at the
bottom of the list will have
the lowest value.
![Page 30: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Ranking method
• Jobs are usually
ranked in each
department and then
the department
rankings are combined
to develop an
organizational ranking.
![Page 31: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ranking method
• The variation in payment of
salaries depends on the
variation of the nature of the
job performed by the
employees. The ranking
method is simple to
understand and practice and
it is best suited for a small
organization.
![Page 32: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Ranking method
• Its simplicity however
works to its
disadvantage in big
organizations because
rankings are difficult
to develop in a large,
complex organization.
![Page 33: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Ranking method
• Moreover, this kind of
ranking is highly
subjective in nature and
may offend many
employees. Therefore, a
more scientific and
fruitful way of job
evaluation is called for.
![Page 34: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 35: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• According to this
method, a
predetermined
number of job groups
or job classes are
established and jobs
are assigned to these
classifications.
![Page 36: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• This method places
groups of jobs into job
classes or job grades.
Separate classes may
include office, clerical,
managerial,
personnel, etc.
![Page 37: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• Following is a brief description of such a classification in an office.– Class I - Executives:
Further classification under this category may be Office Manager, Deputy office manager, Office superintendent, Departmental supervisor, etc.
![Page 38: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• Following is a brief description of such a classification in an office.– Class II - Skilled
workers: Under this category may come the Purchasing assistant, Cashier, Receipts clerk, etc.
![Page 39: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• Following is a brief description of such a classification in an office.– Class III - Semiskilled
workers: Under this category may come Stenotypists, Machine-operators, Switchboard operator etc.
![Page 40: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• Following is a brief description of such a classification in an office.– Class IV - Unskilled
workers: This category may comprise peons, messengers, house keeping staff, File clerks, Office boys, etc.
![Page 41: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• The job grading method is less subjective when compared to the earlier ranking method. The system is very easy to understand and acceptable to almost all employees without hesitation.
![Page 42: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• One strong point in
favour of the method is
that it takes into account
all the factors that a job
comprises. This system
can be effectively used
for a variety of jobs.
![Page 43: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• The weaknesses of the Grading method are:– Even when the
requirements of different jobs differ, they may be combined into a single category, depending on the status a job carries.
– It is difficult to write all-inclusive descriptions of a grade.
![Page 44: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Classification/Grading Method of Job Evaluation
• The weaknesses of the Grading method are:– The method oversimplifies
sharp differences between different jobs and different grades.
– When individual job descriptions and grade descriptions do not match well, the evaluators have the tendency to classify the job using their subjective judgements.
![Page 45: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 46: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation
• This method is widely
used and is considered
to be one of the
reliable and systematic
approach for job
evaluation in mid and
large size
organisations.
![Page 47: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation
• Most consulting
firms adopt this
method, which was
pioneered by Edward
Hay in 1943. Here,
jobs are expressed in
terms of key factors.
![Page 48: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation
• Points are assigned to each
factor after prioritizing each
factor in order of
importance. The points are
summed up to determine
the wage rate for the job.
Jobs with similar point totals
are placed in similar pay
grades.
![Page 49: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation
• The procedure involved may be explained thus:–1. Select key jobs.
Identify the factors common to all the identified jobs such as skill, effort, responsibility, etc.
![Page 50: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation
• The procedure involved may be explained thus:– 2. Divide each major
factor into a number of sub factors. Each sub factor is defined and expressed clearly in the order of importance, preferably along a scale.
![Page 51: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Factor Comparison/Point Method of Job Evaluation
• The procedure involved may be explained thus:– 4. Once the worth of
a job in terms of total points is expressed, the points are converted into money values keeping in view the hourly/daily wage rates.
![Page 52: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Merits and demerits - Method of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 53: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Merits and demerits
• The point method is a
superior and widely
used method of
evaluating jobs. It
forces raters to look
into all key factors and
sub-factors of a job.
![Page 54: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Merits and demerits
• Point values are assigned
to all factors in a
systematic way,
eliminating bias at every
stage. It is reliable because
raters using similar criteria
would get more or less
similar answers.
![Page 55: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Merits and demerits
• The methodology
underlying the approach
contributes to a
minimum of rating error.
It accounts for
differences in wage rates
for various jobs on the
strength of job factors.
![Page 56: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Merits and demerits
• Jobs may change over
time, but the rating
scales established under
the point method remain
unaffected.
![Page 57: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Merits and demerits
• On the negative side, the
point method is complex.
Preparing a manual for
various jobs, fixing values
for key and sub-factors,
establishing wage rates for
different grades, etc., is a
time consuming process.
![Page 58: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Limitations of Method of Job Evaluation Compensation Management
![Page 59: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Limitations of Method of Job Evaluation
• Job evaluation is not
completely scientific.
• The most of the
techniques are
difficult to understand,
even for the
supervisors.
![Page 60: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Limitations of Method of Job Evaluation
• The factors taken by the
programme are not
exhaustive.
• There may be wide
fluctuations in compensable
factors in view of changes in
technology, values and
aspirations of employers, etc.
![Page 61: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Limitations of Method of Job Evaluation
• Employees, trade union
leaders, management
and the programme
operators may assign
different weight to
different factors, thus
creating grounds for
dispute.
![Page 62: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Computer Aided Job Evaluation Compensation Management

computer aided job
evaluation is the state of
art.

Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• The advantages of computer
aided job evaluation (CAJE)
include simplification of job
analysis, ability to keep job
description up to date,
increased objectivity of the
evaluation, less time spend in
committee meeting etc.
![Page 65: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• An additional advantage
of the use of a
computerized system is
the increased reliability
that can be obtained.

Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• Computer aided job
evaluation features
computerized checking of
questionnaire answers and
automated output of both
job evaluation and relevant
compensation reports.

Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• CAJE is not an expert
system. It makes no
decisions. It records,
processes and calculates
data relevant to job
evaluation.
![Page 68: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• CAJE simplifies and
streamlines the routine work
in job evaluation. Even though
CAJE allow us to capture and
use information about job in
new ways, they are only as
good as their designers.

Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• There are three main reasons
why expert system technology
should be used for a
Computerized job evaluation
system.
– Decision of this kind require
expert input and compensation
expertise is scarce.

Computer Aided Job Evaluation
• There are three main reasons why
expert system technology should
be used for a Computerized job
evaluation system.
– A high degree of uncertainty is
present in job evaluation
because job tasks, compensation
policies, laws and regulations are
constantly changing.
![Page 71: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

– Conventional programming
techniques cannot adequately
handle job evaluation because of
programming difficulty and
development costs.

Pay Structures
• Once job analysis has
been done organizations
need to decide upon the
pay structures.
![Page 74: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Pay Structures
• Pay structure refers to
the process of setting up
the pay for a job in an
organization.
![Page 75: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Pay Structures
• The process deals with
internal and external
analysis to estimate the
compensation package
for a job profile.
![Page 76: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Pay Structures
• Internal equity, External equity
and Individual equity are the
most popular pay structures.
Job description provides the in
depth knowledge about the
job profile and its worth.

Internal Equity
• The internal equity
method undertakes the
job position in the
organizational hierarchy.
![Page 79: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Internal Equity
• The process aims at balancing
the compensation provided to
a job profile in comparison to
the compensation provided to
its senior and junior level in the
hierarchy.
![Page 80: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Internal Equity
• “Internal equity exists when
employees in an organization
perceive that they are being
rewarded fairly according to
the relative value of their jobs
within an organization”.
![Page 81: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Internal Equity
• Another way of stating this is to say
that a person’s perception of their
responsibilities, rewards and work
conditions is seen as fair or
equitable when compared with
those of other employees in similar
positions in the same organization.
![Page 82: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Internal Equity
• An internal equity study can
determine if there is pay
equity between like-
positions and if all roles in
the organization are
governed by the same
compensation guidelines.
![Page 83: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Internal Equity
• Usually each role is assigned
a pay range with
corresponding criteria that
outlines how to determine
where an employee should
be placed in the range.
![Page 84: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Internal Equity
• The fairness is ensured
using job ranking, job
classification, level of
management, level of
status and factor
comparison.
![Page 85: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)

Example
• An agency may employ a number of social workers to work with similar client groups. By reviewing the salary of each employee and comparing it with others in the same role, you will be able to determine if internal equity exists.
![Page 87: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Example
• This does not mean that all employees are paid the same; it means that they are paid fairly in relation to other staff in the same role. Differences in salary may be based on education, experience, years of service, or responsibility level.
![Page 88: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)

External Equity
• “External equity exists when
employees in an
organization perceive that
they are being rewarded
fairly in relation to those
who perform similar jobs in
other organizations”.
![Page 90: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
External Equity
• External equity exists when
an organization's pay rates
are at least equal to the
average rates in the
organization’s market or
sector.
![Page 91: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
External Equity
• Employers want to ensure that they are able to pay what is necessary to find, keep and motivate an adequate number of qualified employees. Creating a compensation structure that starts with competitive base pay is critical.
![Page 92: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
External Equity
• Employees also compare
their roles and pay to roles
and pay in other
organizations. Unfortunately
they do not always compare
with similar types of
organizations or even in the
same sector.
![Page 93: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
External Equity
• Generally, employees consider much more than base pay in determining external equity. For some more emphasis may be placed on employee benefits, job security, physical work environment or the opportunity for advancement in deciding if external equity exists.
![Page 94: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
External Equity
• The use of salary surveys is
critical in your ability to
determine if your
compensation and benefits
are comparable to similar
roles in other organizations.
![Page 95: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
External Equity
• It is important to ensure that
the key responsibilities and
goals of the roles being
compared are similar; as is
the sector the organization is
aligned with.
![Page 96: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)

Example
• A number of nonprofit organizations have tried to address quality of life concerns by only requiring full-time employees to work a 35-hour week, while many other organizations require their employees to work 37.5 or even 40 hours per week.
![Page 98: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Example
• It is important that if the
base pay for a specific role
from group one was to be
compared to the same role
in group two, that the
difference in hours is
understood and accounted
for.
![Page 99: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Example
• While the difference in hours may seem small, if a person who worked a 37.5 hour week made $40,000/year, they would be making $20.51/hour. If the person working the 35-hour week were also being paid $20.51/hour, their annual salary would only be $37,328 per year. This could seem inequitable unless the difference in hours was clear.

Salary Surveys
• Surveys collecting
information about employee
compensation, including
salary and benefits, are
commonly called salary
surveys.
![Page 102: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Salary Surveys
• Salary surveys are conducted
with numerous employers to
determine pay levels for
specific job categories and
are generally conducted
either by region, sector or
job classification for the
purposes of comparability.
![Page 103: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
Salary Surveys
• In conjunction with other
tools, salary surveys can
provide useful information
to attract, support and retain
employees within the
context of an overall HR and
organizational plan.
![Page 104: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Salary Surveys
• When designed and used
properly, salary surveys can
provide useful benchmarking
information for comparing
salaries and benefits.

Salary Surveys• A salary survey is a standard
method of finding out what other organizations are paying for specific jobs or job classes. Large organizations in particular, routinely conduct compensation surveys to determine prevailing pay rates and benefits.
![Page 106: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Salary Surveys• These surveys not only determine
the low, high and average salaries for a given position, but also provide a sense of what other organizations are paying. Organizations may purchase results of surveys conducted by a variety of organizations proficient in the collection, analysis and distribution of salary data, or they may choose to conduct their own salary survey.
![Page 107: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)

Salary Surveys
• A key to successfully using
the data contained in a
salary survey is to
understand the assumptions
and criteria used to collect
the information.
![Page 109: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Salary Surveys
• Finding surveys that clearly
report the basis for
collection and dissemination
of information will help you
to ensure that you are
referencing a survey that is
relevant for your
organization.
![Page 110: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Review job descriptions or
position profiles in the survey report– It is important to look at job
duties and responsibilities not just job title when deciding if salary survey information is comparable. To be comparable the jobs must have a similar level of responsibility and range of duties.
![Page 111: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Note province and region.
– Appropriate salary comparisons will come from agencies with a similar geographic focus: local, regional, provincial or national. At the local level, the best salary comparisons will come from other organizations in the same city or town. Good salary comparison may come from a different city or town with similar labor market characteristics and a similar cost of living.
![Page 112: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Note operating budgets of
respondent organizations– As a general rule larger
operating budgets mean higher salaries. Comparable salaries come from organizations of a comparable size. Size is usually estimated by using the operating budget or looking at the number of paid full-time staff.
![Page 113: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/113.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Note the types and descriptions
of respondent organizations– Are the functions, services offered,
clientele, and sources of funding of the organizations in the salary survey comparable to your organization? For example, an organization providing childcare services through provincial funding may have very different salaries than an organization providing parent/child resources through its own fundraising.
![Page 114: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Note the education level and
(full/part-time/union/contract) status of respondents
– The level of education
required for a job and the type
of employment arrangement
can have an impact on
salaries.
![Page 115: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Note the year of data collection
and the date of the report
– Labor market forces can result
in significant changes in
salaries in a short period of
time. More recent data will be
more useful in establishing
current salaries.
![Page 116: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/116.jpg)
Salary Surveys• Note if the survey is a one-time
event or if it's repeated
– Surveys that have been
repeated provide an added
advantage of showing trends
in salaries over the years of
the survey.
![Page 117: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/117.jpg)
Evaluate its validity• It’s important to ensure that
the salary survey was conducted in an objective, valid and reliable manner. What are the sampling frame, sample size and response rate? What is the margin of error? Is it reported?
![Page 118: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/118.jpg)
Evaluate its validity• For information to be valid it
has to come from a large enough sample size. For example, if you collected just three salaries for the same position and one salary is high, one is low, and one is in the middle, you wouldn't be able to conclude much because your sample is too small to provide valid and useful information.
![Page 119: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/119.jpg)
Evaluate its validity
• You also want to be sure that
the information is reliable.
Reliability means that the
survey gives consistent results.
You should therefore carefully
consider how the information
is gathered and decide if it
makes sense to you.
![Page 120: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
Evaluate its validity
• For example, if the survey
instrument is included in the
report, assess if it would be
easy for you to give accurate
answers to the questions.
![Page 121: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
Rate its usability • A good salary survey will
define terms and provide the user with enough information to help him or her easily understand the data. Technical terms should be explained or defined and the report should be comprehensible to non-specialists.
![Page 122: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
Look at all of the numbers• The actual salary paid to an
individual will be influenced in part by the person's years of experience and qualifications. Therefore, the salary range for a position provides more useful information than the actual salary an individual is being paid.
![Page 123: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
Look at all of the numbers
• Other statistical information
such as median - the value in
the middle when all the
values are arranged from
lowest to highest - will also
help make sense of the data.
![Page 124: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
Consider the total compensation package
• Having information on the total compensation package - retirement plan (pension or RRSP), bonuses, benefits and salary - allows for better comparisons. Without this information you might make wrong assumptions about salary level and not have the full picture.
![Page 125: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/125.jpg)
Consider the total compensation package
• For example, in a situation where no benefits are provided, many people (particularly those in higher positions) will negotiate for higher salaries. Without seeing the whole compensation package, you might not understand that the high salary compensates for no benefits.
![Page 126: Job evaluation - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joy](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050818/55cd25b8bb61eb4f068b462a/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
