How will the different levels on the Career Compass standards correspond with new salary grades and ranges?
Each job standard has corresponding market data that we will collect from third-party salary surveys to align our pay practices with other Bay Area public and private employers. Once the standards are finalized, they will be compared to market data for each occupational family, and salary ranges will be determined. A level 2 professional in one family will not necessarily be paid within the same grade and range as a level 2 professional in another family since the prevailing pay practices for professions differ in the marketplace. Each job will be assigned a salary grade and range that is representative of the typical wage levels paid in the market for comparable duties, skills and other requirements.
