Perinvo / Services / Job Evaluation & Salary Structure

Job evaluation and salary structures built for fair, consistent pay decisions.

Perinvo connects job architecture, evaluation, market positioning and governance so your salary structure supports internal fairness and practical management decisions.

Start with roles

Salary decisions become more consistent when job value is clear.

A salary structure cannot solve unclear roles on its own. If job titles hide different levels of accountability, market data will be applied inconsistently and exceptions will accumulate. Job architecture creates the shared language needed before pay ranges are designed.

Perinvo reviews role purpose, scope, knowledge, problem solving, impact and accountability using an agreed evaluation approach. The result is a transparent relationship between roles and levels, not a ranking based on current employee pay or individual performance.

Design the structure

Balance internal equity, market evidence and affordability.

We use the evaluated hierarchy as the foundation for grades and salary ranges. Available market information, the organization pay position and current employee distribution are considered together so leaders understand both the target structure and the transition required.

  • Job families, career streams and levels
  • Consistent job evaluation and quality checks
  • Grade boundaries and salary range design
  • Compa-ratio and range penetration analysis
  • Promotion, hiring and salary review rules
  • Exception governance and periodic maintenance
Implementation

Give managers clear rules for real pay decisions.

The finished design includes governance: who can evaluate a role, when a review is justified, how market movement is monitored and how salary decisions are approved. That protects the structure from becoming outdated or exception-led.

Implementation can be phased. Priority actions may include correcting critical compression, aligning new-hire decisions, communicating grade logic and preparing a budgeted movement plan rather than making uncontrolled changes at once.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before we start.

Is job evaluation the same as employee performance appraisal?

No. Job evaluation assesses the relative requirements and accountability of the role. Performance appraisal assesses how an employee performs in that role.

Do we need market salary data before evaluating jobs?

No. Job evaluation establishes internal job relationships first. Market data is then used to inform pay positioning and salary range design.

Will every employee receive an immediate salary increase?

Not necessarily. The project identifies employee positions against the new ranges and supports a prioritized, affordable transition plan based on agreed policy.

How often should the structure be reviewed?

Governance should monitor job changes and market movement continuously, with a more formal structure review at an interval appropriate to the organization and labor market.

Create a salary structure that explains decisions instead of creating more exceptions.
