Why are we conducting a classification & compensation review at Lane?

  • To support our commitment to offering an attractive, competitive, fair, and equitable compensation for our staff.
  • To ensure a modernized and relevant job evaluation and classification approach.
  • To ensure Lane has a classification and compensation program that will allow the college to attract, motivate, develop and retain highly talented and diverse staff to deliver exceptional results.

Beyond just a competitive market review, this work also includes:

  • Focus groups to collect feedback about Lane’s approach to compensation, what works, and what doesn’t.
  • Collection of position information to create updated and consistent classification specifications.
  • Developing formalized compensation principles including identification of appropriate market comparator groups for benchmarking and market pay targets.
