Course Overview

Compensation is the area where HR decisions are most visible, most contested and most permanent. A poorly designed salary structure creates inequities that take years to correct and that employees discuss long before HR discovers them.

This workshop is built around construction rather than commentary. You will evaluate jobs using a points-factor method, build a grade structure from evaluation output, design salary ranges with deliberate overlap, benchmark against market data, and model the cost of implementing a structure across an existing population.

Particular attention is given to the problems practitioners actually face: pay compression after several years of flat increases, out-of-range employees, counter-offer pressure, and communicating a reward decision that an employee will consider unfair. Every module produces a working spreadsheet artefact you can adapt for your own organisation.

What Students Say

“We had a pay structure that nobody could explain and compression across three grades. The compensation workshop gave me the evaluation method and the modelling approach to rebuild it properly, and the remediation costing was what finally persuaded our finance director.”

“We enrolled eleven people from two countries on the business partner programme. The value was in the live assignment: every participant brought a real problem from their own unit, and several of those recommendations were implemented before the programme even finished.”
