Mapping fair, equitable pay

A 360° view of job descriptions, factors, hierarchy, bands, ranges, and more.

Job Evaluation

How do you map internal pay equity? JER HR Group's Job Evaluation Matrix produces an unbiased methodology for reviewing job descriptions to job title, job descriptions to salary grade based on job value, and comparative job factors to the industry recognized JER HR Group proprietary database.

Job Review

Our mapping starts with aligning Job Descriptions to Job Titles. JER HR Group's through process involves reviewing each job description against its job title to make sure it is properly structured.

For positions in which a current or complete job description is lacking, we provide a Position Description Questionnaire (PDQ) template to assist the organization in the standardization of job description format and content. The PDQ can be completed either by organizational staff or supervisors, depending on the organization's culture and resources. Completed questionnaires are reviewed by the department head and/or the HR department for accuracy, and then submitted to JER HR Group.

Definition and Comparison of Job Factors

In this step, JER HR Group compares the Job Factors in each Job Description against the JER HR Group's proprietary Job Factors and Levels database to determine points for each of five factors per job. We also analyze job evaluation results and recommend title changes and/or updates to job description content to enhance consistency and conformity within industry standards and norms.
