In assigning an appropriate level to the various administrative roles at the company, Compensation evaluates each position to determine its worth relative to the market and other positions in the organization. There are several factors that influence the level of each position, including competencies, decision-making skills, and level of impact required. The evaluation procedure is standardized to maintain consistency throughout the company.
To ensure consistency throughout the company and to maintain its competitive position with peer employers, Compensation evaluates positions and determines an appropriate level and pay range. Evaluations are conducted in consultation with Human Resources Officers (HROs) and/or department managers and are based on completed Position Descriptions (PD) submitted by HROs to Compensation.
