Classification and Compensation Studies
We deliver
We have provided classification and compensation studies for City of Grants Pass, City of Irvine, City of Medford, City of Phoenix, and the County of Santa Barbara. WBCP’s studies address title, department, and organizational salary and compensation needs.
WBCP clients are impressed with our attention to detail and willingness to meet specific compensation needs.
WBCP did a comprehensive classification and compensation study for the County of Santa Barbara for 147 benchmark job classes. The study required a comparison of wages as well as most benefits and was customized to meet the County’s needs. The results were outstanding: completed quickly; was the most cost-effective bid received; and the County was able to use the information gathered in numerous ways. ”
