Dunn County hires consultant for classification and compensation study
Summary
The commission approved a contract with Public Sector Personnel Consultants (presented by Mr. Weatherly) to perform a classification and compensation study, including job questionnaires and a market salary survey; commissioners will sign off on comparator choices and receive final deliverables.
The Dunn County Commission voted to enter a contract with Public Sector Personnel Consultants to conduct a county‑wide classification and compensation study.
The consultant (referred to in the record as Mr. Weatherly) outlined a two‑phase approach: (1) review and update job descriptions through employee questionnaires and desk audits, and (2) perform a customized market salary survey to recommend pay ranges and a salary structure. The consultant said the firm will return detailed job questionnaires and desk-audit results to the county and will work with department heads to define appropriate market comparators.
Commissioners stressed they must approve the list of comparators and that desk audit results and any proposed pay‑implementation options be presented to the board before implementation. A motion to enter the contract carried on a unanimous roll-call vote; staff confirmed commissioners would receive the questionnaires and recommendations before any wage changes are implemented.
