Reviews

“We now have the tools and approach to enable employees to be actors in their advancement and pay.” Managing director, SME in the metals industry

“Our attractiveness is increasing in a market where talent is in short supply.” DHR, pharmaceutical sector

“That’s it, our wage policy is coherent in relation to our strategy and our expectations in terms of results.” Commercial manager, equipment department

“By working on the issue of pay, we dealt a lot with closely connected issues and identified new priorities… We still have a lot to do to get to where we want to be!” Managing director, SME in the distribution sector

 

An industrial company in the metals sector stated that an attendance bonus of 100 euros per month, for all employees excluding management, was ineffective. Despite this incentive, there was still rising absenteeism, in particular in production.

Employees complained of being minimum-wage earners while a collection of variable elements placed their total pay well below the minimum wage. Basic salaries were similar for everyone at the same level of classification, but the rationale behind the classifications wasn’t clear. Individual experiences were responsible for creating anomalies.

 

A joint effort with the project team led to:

  • outlining job description benchmarks and their pay scales
  • a personalisation of pay within a bracket consistent with the market and in relation to pay scales

The collection of bonuses was integrated into the basic wage, according to the rules based on the record of monthly transfers for the three previous years. Specific pay variables, such as rewards, were kept.

Exclusively individual increases are now built around two criteria:

  • respecting minimum standards through benchmark job descriptions
  • individual results

Profit-sharing was established, calculated using group success criteria.

The company completely reviewed its communication methods relating to pay and the two levers for making progress: commitment and performance.
