Description
Job evaluation is key to ensuring that employees are compensated fairly for their work. It is therefore essential that HR professionals have a robust process in place so that pay and reward are transparent and defensible within teams and across departments.
Armstrong's Job Evaluation Handbook gives HR professionals all the tools they need to assess which approach to job evaluation is most suitable, how to implement it and how to maintain it. Packed with case studies from leading organizations such as Microsoft, Vodafone and the NHS, this guide will provide HR professionals with the ability to answer key questions such as how can we decide what is fair to pay our staff, how can we make sure that work of equal value receives equal pay and how can we make sure that our salaries remain competitive in the market?
Armstrong's Job Evaluation Handbook covers everything needed to put effective job evaluation processes in place, including analytical matching and market pricing, developing job grades and defining pay structures. There is also coverage of the latest trends and issues in job evaluation, such as the decline in points-rated systems and the use of levelling by consultants. Underpinned by original research, this is a book that no HR department can afford to be without.

Job Evaluations are <i>"a subjective process carried out within an objective framework"</i>. If you don't know much about Job Evaluations and want to get an in depth introduction, this book is prefect.
Divided into 4 parts, it covers the fundamental characteristics of job evaluation, the three main formal JE schemes, the applications of JEs and the practice of JEs.
The book draws a lot from a 2017 survey of a UK rewards firm, plus some other reference material. It is a bit clinical (not quite academic) and so best suited to HR practitioners who want to understand more about job evaluation and pay structures. There is a bit of UK-specific information in the book which makes it better suited for that market, but it still has quite a lot of relevant information for other markets.
Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for providing me with an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.
