Benchmark Jobs • “Benchmark” • A representative job, easily identified and common to many organizations
Salary Survey • “Salary Survey” • An organizational sample of jobs and salaries compared to the external labor market, from which compensation conclusions can be drawn.
Salary Structure • Positions in the same grade are equal • Ranges allow the option to pay market rates • The midpoint – experienced and fully qualified employee • Maximum is the highest salary level for the titles • Range spread is the Max-Min Min
Developing Pay Ranges • Job evaluation determines the internal relationships between jobs by assigning titles to pay grades. • Pay range midpoints approximate the market for building the structure.
Developing Pay Ranges 17 Pay Ranges • Tiered range spreads increasing from 35% to 125% to accommodate greater breadth of responsibility • Gradually increasing midpoint progression from 12% to 20% • Market ratios reflecting parity between pay range midpoint and market • Single structure for all campuses Two Executive broadbands • 150% range spread
Pay Adjustment • Employees paid below the new minimums will receive a pay increase effective Feb. 2013 • Employees paid above the new maximumscould have limited opportunities for pay increases
Range Elimination • Reduced Ranges by 68%

Frequently Asked Questions • Will my pay be affected by the study? No one’s pay will decrease as a result of the study. However, some employees will receive a pay increase as a result of the analysis.
Frequently Asked Questions Will my performance evaluation be affected? No. The Staff Job Title and Salary Study is about the work, not the worker. Performance evaluation is about the employee’s individual performance and is not a part of the study.
Frequently Asked Questions Will this affect my ability to advance in my career? A career path for advancement may be clearer as a result of the study.
Frequently Asked Questions • Why is HR conducting this study under current budget constraints? While titles have been reviewed on an ad hoc basis, a comprehensive job evaluation study has not been conducted on staff positions since 1972.
Frequently Asked Questions • Will my title change? Mizzou currently has over 1,600 distinct job titles for a population of 7,500 employees. Where titles involve similar duties and responsibilities, it is likely that the number of titles will be consolidated, without eliminating staff. However, that does not preclude your department from using working titles.
Frequently Asked Questions • Additional duties have been added to my job. Will I get a raise? If the complexity of the job increased, a pay raise could result if the job is evaluated at a higher level, though a pay raise would not be guaranteed. If the complexity of the job did not increase, though more of the same duties were added, the job would not be evaluated at a higher level and a pay raise would not be considered, based on the job evaluation.
Frequently Asked Questions • Will the other titles and job families be studied? Yes, within the next year, all of the job families will be evaluated.
Key Points to Remember • Titles were evaluated • Title consolidation conducted • Salary ranges developed • Employees will not lose pay • Job duties will not change • Organizational structure will not change • No elimination of positions or layoffs • Employee performance will not be evaluated
