Market Based Pay System
The Market Based Pay System
Project
Objective:Wages and Salaries are a very large part of the business expense.
• Excessive costs jeopardize the business.
• Employees need to believe they are paid for their contribution.
Process Outline:Part 1: Job Descriptions
Part 2: Market Data Collection
Part 3: Market Data to Current Pay Analysis
Part 4: Develop Pay Structure
Part 1: Job Descriptions
• Without a Job Description, any pay plan is “rational”.
• No Job Description? Then look at the process to develop them.
• Job Descriptions identify the following:• Reason for the position• Key duties• Qualifications• Knowledge, skills, and abilities
Part 2: Market Data Collection
• Published Market Data is obtained for the Job Description.• Generally at least two sources are used.• Data should represent same labor area, current time period.

Market Survey Base Compensation
This position has multiple components, as a result several different sets of market data are used.
Part 3: Market Data to Current Pay
Collect:
Market data presents a picture of the existing “job-worth hierarchy”.
Comparisons will determine whether the company is currently paying above or below market for each job and allow calculation of projected costs to implement any proposed new pay structure.
Process… Market Data Sheet
Since there is one incumbent, the actual compensation 25 th and 75th are same. Otherwise, these would be lowest and highest reported compensation for the job.
Part 4: Develop Pay StructurePay structure has multiple pay or salary ranges. Each pay range has a minimum, maximum and
midpoint value. The difference between minimum and maximum is range spread.
Range spread does not have to be uniform throughout the pay structure. Typically positions quickly mastered skills that are have narrower pay ranges than supervisory, managerial or high level technical positions.
Job Grades should be designed to provide midpoints that reflect market rate and minimum and maximums that are reasonably close to the minimum and maximum rates paid in the market. Job (pay) grades are groups of jobs that have been determined to be approximately equal in difficulty or importance.
Number of Job Grades typically ranges from 10 to 16. The grades can be established by number of job evaluation points or by the points on a trend line that represents the midpoints of the market averages.
Part 4: Develop Pay StructureJob (Pay) Grades: Cluster Create a scatter diagram from the set of compensation and market averages. Freehand
the groups that appear similar.
Equal Spread Using the same basic set of data, divide the x-axis into equal divisions based on the number of grades to be used.
Midpoint Progression should be designed to provide midpoints that reflect market rate and minimum and maximums that are reasonably close to the minimum and maximum rates paid in the market.
Continuous typically ranges from 10 to 16. The grades can be established by number of job evaluation points or by the points on a trend line that represents the midpoints of the market averages.
Rate Ranges typically ranges from 10 to 16. The grades can be established by number of job evaluation points or by the points on a trend line that represents the midpoints of the market averages.

This structure does not require the grades be equal in width. It tends to be used with ranking or slotting methods of job evaluation.
