Salary Discussions: Effective Compensation Communication

Course Description:

Did you know most workers don’t know how their pay raises are determined? In fact, according to The Knowledge of Pay Study only 4 in 10 employees actually know how they can increase their base salary or cash bonuses.

The results also showed that employees who understood their compensation objectives showed higher overall pay satisfaction which is directly related to increases in:

retention
commitment to the organization, and
trust in management

In other words, ensuring your employees understand their compensation is good for your company’s bottom line!

But communicating compensation is challenging for any HR pro. And most managers dread salary discussions because 1) they don’t feel ownership for pay decisions; 2) they’ve never been trained to effectively discuss compensation; and 3) the managers don’t understand the compensation programs themselves.

In this 75 minute audio conference, CCM’s compensation experts will provide you with the strategies you need to communicate more effectively with your employees and coach other supervisors on compensation communications. You’ll also learn how to:

Properly communicate your overall compensation structure changes
Announce bonus and other incentive plans
Talk about compensation in ways that employees view it as equitable
Help your employees understand what they can do to gain higher pay
Effectively discuss how compensation is linked to performance
Help employees feel valued, at every compensation level

Plus, we’ll help you tackle some of the tough one-on-one employee discussions, including tips on:

Ways to respond when a poor-performing employee requests additional pay
How to get he most out of announcing a pay-raise to an employee
What you can say when you unable to bring an employee’s pay up to market rate
How to get employees to come to you with their compensation-related complaints
How to discuss factors that impact compensation decisions

You’ll also get the answers to your specific questions in the live Q&A session following the presentation.
