Hi kirubaemmu,

First thing first your must understand the importance of these job positions in your organization chart to establish of nature and level of jobs.
Next step is to classify them into job ladder and job families into verticle and horizontal the way it fits into your grade structure pay bands.
Basically this exercise is judgemental of position and nature of job which is determined on the basis of current market price of the job to fit into particular grade.

I hope you got my point and this will help you in building pay structure. Please acknowledge my advise by return mail so I must know what is missing?

Cheers.............

Hello,

Job Families are groups of occupations based upon work performed, skills, education, training, and credentials.

Job ladders are career progression path in your organization. You have to see particular job can move from minimum one level to maximum level. Accordingly you may assess on experience, qualification or expertise may move in dirrerent level within one job occupation shall be organised for pay bands from low to maximum.

This exercise shall be done for all job position where these positions have movement as career path or job ladder by promotions to move upwards in your organization which can be indicator as grade.

Some occupations may have limitation but due to market pricing of such jobs are specialise into ocupation like Engineers, Professionals, Finance,Commercial and Administration etc.

This is in order to maintain internal equity and external equity.

Yes we do this exercise every year after annual merit increase and promotions to set grade structure and internal equity right.

We have to see total number of jobs in the organization as per organization chart then each job shall be codified with job analysis and descriptions is wrote for further evaluation of the job to fit into salary grade codes and organization chart has mention of such grades for each position.

This is regarding only salay grade structure then comes your benefits structure for different grades which includes guranteed cash also called fixed allowance and operational allowance etc.
