What factors were considered in deciding an appropriate comparison for a particular position?
Every effort was made to identify comparable market survey jobs for a each exempt position based on the position description. A market survey job match was available for 80% of all the exempt positions at Evergreen. When market survey data on a position were not available, the specific content characteristics of the job (scope of responsibility, accountability, supervision, etc.) were used to determine a range in which to place the position.
