Orange County Classification & Compensation Study
By Jenny Carpenter, Director of Human Resources & Stephanie Straub, Assistant to the County Administrator and Public Information Officer
Human Resources is excited to announce the launch of our organizational classification and compensation study. The study is a direct result of the Engagement Survey conducted last autumn and the feedback we received from staff across our organization. Staff overwhelming requested action around job roles, benefits, and compensation. Earlier this spring, the County contracted with Gallagher Human Resources and Compensation Consulting (https://www.ajg.com/us/services/human - resources - compensation - consulting/) to assist us in updating job classifications, job descriptions, and salary scales. Our overall goal is to be recognized as a more competitive and equitable organization where we can be better positioned to attract and retain top talent. A diverse project team consisting of participants from across the organization has been convened to participate in the project from start to finish. The project is projected to last approximately nine (9) months and will require input from all levels of the organization. By collecting and assessing internal and external data we will work towards formulating an achievable organizational compensation strategy that can be built on year over year. We will provide staff with periodic updates as we work towards our final product. If you have any questions or are interested in additional information, please contact Jenny Carpenter, Director of Human Resources at jcarpenter@orangecountyva.gov or at (540) 672 - 3313.
