Fast & accurate pay benchmarking

An employee’s financial reward is one of the primary motivations for them to come to work; it is also one of your organisation’s biggest costs. This is why achieving a balance that benefits both the staff member, and your business development goals is among the most difficult objectives facing HR professionals.

Croner Reward make it easier by using pay benchmarking to support reward structure development or as a stand-alone service for individual positions that are either new to your business or simply require updating.

This gives you the opportunity to undertake either regular small-scale activity or larger departmental or company-wide exercises with ease.

With direct access to Croner Reward’s remuneration tools, including one of the most comprehensive independent pay and benefits databases in the country, our specialist team can provide fast and accurate salary benchmark reports, from which management can base sound and independent reward management decisions.

Competitive salary information

If you are worried about losing key staff members to uncompetitive pay, Croner Reward can provide competitive salary benchmarking information to help you reduce staff turnover. Plus, when you are looking to recruit new talent, this information can help you attract the best candidates.

Croner Reward identifies what the job market wants through the analysis of market data. It uses one of the largest independent pay and benefits databases in the country, which is constantly growing and being updated.

As new data comes in, it is referenced against other key market data points, and then filtered by industry, company turnover, number of employees, county, function and job level. This provides an indication of the level of pay that can be offered to staff to either meet or surpass the median or average. This data is then published in the form of salary surveys at varying times throughout the year. As reports are published annually and bi-annually, we provide a formula to help you calculate – on average – how much the data is likely to fluctuate over the short-term.

SalarySearch

Calculating a benefits package with a salary comparison tool is useful if you are recruiting for a new position or if you are looking to check that a salary is at the market rate. In addition, it can help with staff retention, as you’ll be able to confirm if you are paying the market rate, or if you may need to increase salaries to increase staff retention.

The system is easy to use, making it ideal for busy HR professionals or managers. In addition to showing pay information, the salary calculator also details benefits associated with a particular job.
