Market Reviews and Salary Benchmarking are significant drivers of competitiveness of organizations, augmenting their capacity to attract and retain talent. This is only possible if the organization has visibility into the existing competencies of its employees and the gaps that may exist therein.
Market Reviews & Salary Benchmarking Process
Another consideration is how salaries of the organization compare with equivalent positions in the market place. Often, due to longer tenures of individuals in some positions, there is a significant mismatch between job requirements, competencies and salaries of individuals in those positions.
A market salary benchmarking process will provide a reliable way to assess gaps within the salaries of staff members by department and functional area. For example, Arcus has found that salaries of positions in IT and finance have been growing faster than those in administrative positions. This means that organizations need to constantly adjust their salaries to ensure they attract the best candidates.
Arcus can help your organization with the following:
- Identify the most relevant salary and job responsibility benchmarks for equivalent positions in your organization.
- Collate and benchmark specific data for a cluster of comparator organizations that best reflect your position in the market.
- Arcus regularly conducts compensation surveys that allow us to constantly benchmark salary ranges for positions to within 25-75th percentile ranges. This robust database allows our clients to compare salaries of positions by type, size and location of comparator organizations in our survey samples.
The benchmark survey data and survey tool is highly flexible and can be adapted to meet the requirements of niche positions within narrow job clusters and industry sectors.
The information from our surveys and benchmarks can help you:
- Develop realistic salary ranges for positions within your organizations
- Develop base salaries and benefit ranges for positions
- Fine tune job responsibilities for positions based on equivalent samples from other organizations
- Develop an incentive and reward system linked to performance of staff
