Modifying a Job Evaluation Worksheet

This chapter discusses the principles of internally consistent compensation systems and the practices that establish them. The point method system assigns point values to jobs based on the degree of compensable factors that define them. When job evaluation is conducted correctly, jobs with higher point totals will be valued (in terms of average market pay rates) more highly than jobs with lower point totals. The following list shows five jobs and each job's point total.

Job Title	Job Evaluation Point Total
Management trainee	220 points
Assistant manager	330 points
Associate manager	470 points
Manager	545 points
Senior manager	720 points

Let's assume that the average market pay rate for the associate manager job is

$55,000

and it is being used as the frame of reference for determining the rates for the remaining jobs on the list.
