Introduction

The real-world challenge in this assessment is to focus on three areas: building consistency, being competitive, and recognizing employee contributions. Keep in mind you are building a total rewards system for an imaginary company, CapraTek. First, focus on consistency for your system, which will include job analysis and job evaluation. Second, review how to create a competitive package that includes surveying the market (which you do not do for this assessment). Finally, consider how to design a pay structure and evaluate various approaches, focusing on an overarching strategic approach.

The assessments, based on CapraTek scenarios, must be completed in sequence.

Preparation

As a newly hired compensation specialist, your first challenge is to design an internally consistent and externally competitive compensation system for CapraTek.

Your manager gives you the following advice: "First, focus on consistency for your system, which will include job analysis and job evaluation. Second, review how to create a competitive package that includes surveying the market." (You will construct an action plan with recommendations, but you do not actually conduct a survey). "Finally, consider how to design a pay structure and evaluate various approaches, focusing on an overarching strategic approach."
