Compensation Consultants

Certified Compensation ConsultantsCompensation/Pay Equity:  Is it part of your strategy to drive your business forward or is it holding you back?

Does your business have direction when it comes to compensation matters or do you feel like you are all over the map?  Consider how confident you are in the answers to these questions:

  • Do we know how we want to pay our employees relative to our competitors? Do we want to lead the market, pay equal to the market, or can we lag the market?
  • How do we know if our pay rates are competitive?
  • How do I know if internally I am paying employees equitably in comparison to one another?
  • Are our compensation practices creating challenges for recruitment and retention?
  • Have we identified the most critical positions in our company for which we are willing to compensate differently?
  • Are we using the right mix of tools to motivate our employees to perform at their best?
  • Do our employees understand how they are paid and do they view their compensation as a positive or a negative?
  • Are we aware of all the areas where the company may have legal exposure for non-compliance with wage and hour laws and do we know how to mitigate that risk?
