Development of Compensation Program
The Personnel Office is in the process of developing
a formal salary plan for The Institute. This plan will include
the following: the establishment of salary grades based upon
an evaluation of the duties and responsibilities of each position;
the development of salary ranges based upon a survey of salaries
paid to comparable positions in other Washington, D.C. trade
associations of similar size and stature; the documentation of
policies and procedures~to set individual salaries and to maintain
the salary plan; and the formalization of performance analysis.
In order to develop this salary plan, it is first
necessary for each member of the staff to write a position
description. To assist you, the~e are two (2) completed position
descriptions attached to this memorandum which you may use as
examples.. The position description format of the Special Projects
Director should be .used for the professional staff, while the
format for Editorial Secretary is to be used for support staff.
The position descriptions should be written in third-person
statement form.
The professional staff should complete all.sections of
the form and submit it to you for review and approval. Support
staff should complete only the Primary Responsibilities section
which should then be reviewed by ~is/her immediate supervisor.
When both the employee and supervisor are satisfied with the
draft, you should review and approve the Primary Responsibilities
and, with the immediate supervisor, complete the first two sections
entitled Summary and Mimimum Qualifications. ~
Examples of common job factors that should be addressed
when writing each position description include:
I. Difficulty and complexity of work.
