Market Gap
• Compares
• Answers: are we still competitive to today’s market?
value of the market
percentile of your
pay when the reports
were last run
value of the same
percentile in
today’s market
the gap is the
difference
between them

Market Gap
• Answers: What jobs are moving quickest and the most?
• Sorted by the total $ difference
• Shows whether jobs are moving with low, medium, or
high velocity
14. www.payscale.com
Range Outliers
• Group by Red or Green to get just a list of high or low
• Breaks information down to the employee level
• Shows where their pay falls relative to the pay range

Disparate Pay
• Shows middle, lowest, and highest pay for each job
• Answers: should I level my jobs? Do I have
compression? Do I have discrimination concerns?
24. www.payscale.com
Disparate Results
• “too wide” depends on level; pay attention to > 50%
• “too narrow” means you’re not differentiating pay
enough by performance, experience, etc

appropriately?

• Look at cold jobs too
Notes de l'éditeur
– PayScale is great
To get the right pay match for your role, it’s essential that you define which labor market you’re competing in. PayScale has over 40 million profiles, all with multiple data points. Some will be relevant to your role, some won’t – and telling PayScale about your Labor Market lets us know which ones are.

Early disclaimer: all reports are based on a fictional company, so data will refer to these particular jobs in these particular markets, with these particular fictional employee pay practices.

Notes on this feature from a chat b/n Sanket & Mykkah
velocity - how fast the job is moving in the market.
velo --> yeah, speed of the job in the market (we take 3/6/9/12 mo changes and come up with a score)
you could explain velo as just the likelihood of the market gap increasing significantly in the short term
Jobs that moved down are not on the report because the market pays LESS for those than what you did (going by the gap calc)
high means it has been moving up for the last 4 consecutive quarters (and moving up more in the short term)
medium means its been moving up for 3 of the last 4 quarters (and moving up in the short to mid term more)
low means its moved up the 2 of the last 4 quarters but not necessarily moving up in the short term
In order to maintain someone's percentile in the market, it costs money.
gap --> takes the market percentile of someone's salary at the time their market report was last run and states what salary that market percentile would equate to in today's market....the gap is the difference between the two
Yesterday’s market compared to Today’s market; value of your job then vs value of your job now
concrete example:
i'm making 10 bucks an hour. that equals 21st market percentile on 1/1/2016. now, today 10/hr is 15th market percentile. so what would it cost to maintain me at the 21st market percentile? that number is thegap
Note: jobs that moved down are not included in the calculation of market gap. Typically, companies don’t reduce employee pay.

velocity - how fast the job is moving in the market.
Velo isthe likelihood of the market gap increasing significantly in the short term
Jobs that moved down are not on the report because the market pays LESS for those than what you did, and reducing pay is typically not an option
high means it has been moving up for the last 4 consecutive quarters (and moving up more in the short term)
medium means its been moving up for 3 of the last 4 quarters (and moving up in the short to mid term more)
low means its moved up the 2 of the last 4 quarters but not necessarily moving up in the short term
Notes for us on market gap – in the future we may add grouping (manager, dept) and sorting functionality (velocity, #Ees)

Take out the performance piece, make sure that it's screen shots of the most recent
Sort by range penetration brings those who are farthest from your targets to the top
Worth noting that the strategy in this example is to pay at the 65th, but the report highlights those who are below the 50th. So, it may not capture top performers who are paid low to the 65th percentile of the market.

Market Outliers looks very similar in look & feel to Range Outliers
Note to us: I hid columns in some of these reports to make them fit better
Describe chart & summary
Describe every column
Hovering over the distribution column will tell you how many people fall into each distance from the market. Note: I didn’t do this because the hover chart is wrong.
Market ratio should be closer to 1 for smaller groups
Switch to TCC – company to market TCC comparison chart
Export will put both base & TCC numbers onto one grid

Well, it’s really going to depend on what matters most to your organization. Here are some ideas.
----- Meeting Notes (6/27/16 09:43) -----
If you have ranges, look at your performers to the ranges
If you don't, then look at your performers to the market (get screen grab of that report)

Swap middle bullet to: Is cost of labor reflected appropriately
Rita: So, we’ve talked about all the things you should think about with the art & science behind creating labor markets – so the most important question – now what? Let’s do it!
I can’t think of a report people should use weekly… but I really want to

- Hiring
- Promosting

GKN something, Emil Antony
If no grades – no problem. Load “org level” as one of your job custom groups
Note to us: these will exist in the market reports grid for both Benchmark & Insight. Just can’t get there from Analytics Launchpad anymore.
Sort – 12 month for overall year to year trend, 3 month for quick moving jobs
Search, export (download), etc
Options for hot jobs:
Market bonus
Base pay raise
Do something creative – extra days off, extra perks, special projects, WFH, etc what do the employees in those jobs want?
Do nothing – may be more risky, but if folks are happy, you may be fine for a bit. Keep your eye on the trends.
Some frames of reference:
Increase budgets put the typical increase at 3% annually.
5-7% is a decent sized pay increase over the course of a year.
In many pay structures, the distance between grades is somewhere between 10-15%, so 5-7 ½% movement could firmly put the job in a different pay range depending on the structure
