Hi Menta,
It is very essential to do a market study. You can get in touch with the agencies that are into Compensation Survey and Benchmarking in order to ensure that you are paying the right amount for the particular position.
Some of the names that come to my mind are - Mercer, Hewitt, Ma Foi, etc.
Let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Menta,
Cost of getting the survey would vary and depend on the items included for survey.
Some of these points that you can consider while benchmarking:
- Highlight the jobs which are of utmost importance in the company to get survey. Do not include route jobs
- Have an appropriate mix of organizations to benchmark with
- Highlight what you want to benchmark – salary, benefits, incentive structure, etc.
I would not have any information on the cost involved in conducting such a survey. You might have to speak to these firms listed in my previous reply to get an idea.
It is difficult to get data on the salary structure, gradation, % hike, etc. when an individual does this survey alone.
Yes, you can conduct a survey or obtain information on your own. But this would not be really accurate.

Instead of hiring some private agencies which is costly, my advise is to you can take a help of MT / Summer Trainee by giving him assigment to do comparative analysis of salaries paid by other companies in ur field which is cost effective.
My advise is - you must enroll your company for annual compensation benchmarking through various agencies/vendors like mecer, hewitt etc. these agencies help you not only in mapping your existing structure mapped with the industry but also helps you to place them at certain mid point.
Thanks.

Hi Menta,
This is a simple format for comparing salary with other companies. Firstly you should benchmark your company with the other company which is the best in the same sector and then meet the senior most person in that company and try to convince them for a market study on mutual benefits. It may not be easy but still no harm in trying.
Format for Salary Survey:
Salary Survey Report
Company Name & Address:
S. No Particulars Amount in Dhs Other Benefits Remarks
1 Starting Salary
2 Allowances (HRA/Conveyance/Food/Others)
3 Others
TOTAL SALARY (Dhs)
1. Incentive/Bonuses
2 Working Hours
3 Educational Requirements
4 Geographic Location
5 Source of hire:( internal/external)
6 Working conditions
7 Any other
Note: Different Levels of jobs can be included in the above survey.
