Pembroke Park presents market-based pay plan; staff estimate adds about $207,000 to annual payroll
Summary
Human resources presented a compensation study by Garing Group that would create pay grades and raise pay for several underpaid positions; commissioners agreed to place the plan on the consent agenda for adoption.
Forschmidt, the town's human resources director, presented a market-based pay study completed with the Garing Group and said the study benchmarks roughly 45 positions against regional data and recommends updated pay grades and ranges. The package, including cost-of-living adjustments and other changes, was estimated to increase annual payroll by about $207,459.63.
Forschmidt said eight current positions would be placed above minimums and specifically cited administration and the building department as affected areas. "This will achieve long term strategic goals in an otherwise competitive and dynamic talent market," Forschmidt said, adding the plan aims to reduce turnover and recruitment costs.
Commissioners discussed the plan briefly and agreed to place it on the consent agenda for final consideration. Staff said the pay plan document had been circulated to commissioners and would be included in the consent materials.
