Job Evaluation Systems

	          		My organisation carried out a job evaluation change. We changed the grading structure and the salary structure. Long-serving employees are not satisfied, because they are on the same grade with new employees having the same qualifications (but no length of service obviously). What could be the best option?

				                Job Evaluation

													It will depend upon the type of job evaluation systems that your organization is using and the nature of the jobs encompassed by the JE system. I prefer point-factor job evaluation systems based on occupational streams and benchmarks.

As for the salary structure, I prefer career banding (a type of broad-banding). If you are using a single step for each job, you will find it difficult to satisfy long term employees. There are other solutions, but I would need to know more. Using education and experience to evaluate positions is not recommended. Job knowledge should be used in lieu of qualifications. Here you can find more information about job evaluation systems and salary compensation.
