Leaders must be actively involved in discussing the institution's compensation program with employees. The leader's role in compensation encompasses the following:
- Know the UTHealthHoustoncompensation program so employee questions can be answered and resolved quickly and efficiently.
- 确保员工了解他们的工作title, salary range, role, and responsibilities.
- Conduct a formal performance review once a year. Additionally, communicate expectations when employees are promoted or transferred into a new job.
- Ensure job descriptions for the roles in your area are current and accurate. Develop desk or departmental job descriptions to more clearly define what is done in your particular area, unless the generic job description is a very close match.
- Continue monitoring employees' salaries, skills, experience and performance.
- Be familiar with non-base salary benefits such as paid leave, insurance, retirement, recreational facilities, flex schedules and non-monetary rewards.
When a job changes significantly or you need to develop a new job, Compensation can assist you to determine if an existing job title/description is suitable.
