MEDIAN SALARY COMPARISONS
CLASSIFIED MEDIAN SALARIES VS. MARKET SALARIES
Another component of maintaining market competitiveness involves assessing where employees are within their respective pay ranges. The next section provides a review of the competitiveness of the actual salaries for classified employees.
METHODOLOGY
The following methodology was used to compare median salaries of classified employees to market median salaries for comparable benchmark jobs.
Classified jobs were matched to benchmark jobs in the public and private sectors. Only those classified benchmark jobs that were matched in both the public and private sectors were included in this analysis.
A median salary was identified for each classified benchmark classified job.
Median salaries were identified for the corresponding benchmark job that was matched in both the public and private sectors.
For each classified pay schedule, an overall median value was calculated from the actual median salaries for the classified benchmark jobs, the public sector benchmark jobs, and the private sector benchmark jobs.
The lag of the classified median salaries was calculated by dividing the overall classified median by the overall median for the applicable sector, and then subtracting 100%.
