Overview

Compensation Management (HR-15) is where you define and govern the pay structure for your organization: salary bands tied to positions, merit increase planning, and total-compensation statements. Open it from HR → Compensation. The foundation of the module is the salary band — a min / midpoint / max pay range for a position, anchored to a market percentile. Bands give every pay decision a consistent reference point (the compa-ratio: an employee’s pay relative to the band midpoint) and feed merit planning and equity analysis.

Salary bands

The Salary Bands surface lists every active band with its position, range (minimum, midpoint, maximum), spread, market percentile, and effective date. Use Add Salary Band to define a new range, or filter by position to review a specific role’s structure.

How bands are used

  • Compa-ratio — an employee’s base pay divided by their band midpoint, so you can see who sits below, at, or above target for their role.
  • Merit planning — proposed increases are evaluated against the band so raises keep people within their range.
  • Equity analysis — bands provide the structure for reviewing pay consistency across positions.

Permissions

The screenshot above is generated automatically from the local end-to-end test lane (tests/e2e/hr/hr-15-compensation-docs-shots.spec.ts, run via npm run docs:shots) against synthetic seed data. That spec also runs an auto-heal gate — it fails on any console error, page error, or HTTP ≥ 400 while driving the surface — so the image reflects a clean, real render and is checked by the screenshot drift gate.
