Compensation Basics
Saturday, July 15 • 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Is employee compensation costing your business too much? Are you in a constant cycle of never-ending pay increases just to find and keep good people? Do you know if your pay is competitive? No matter what area of human resources you work in, a general foundation and understanding of compensation is important to have as it supports and links to many other programs and functions.

You will learn:

  • What the elements of a pay program are
  • Common compensation terms
  • Compensation philosophy and why it is important
  • Various types of direct compensation
  • The pay budget
  • Types of job evaluation
  • Process for market pricing
  • Pay structure design
  • Communicating and evaluating compensation

This session will provide foundational tools to help business leaders, HR departments of one, HR Generalists, and HR Compensation Specialists develop a compensation strategy and structure that makes sense for their business.

                



    Michael Maggiotto Jr.,

    Director of Human Resource Solutions at BEST Human Capital & Advisory Group

    As a Sr. Certified Professional in Human Resources, I partner with businesses leading Business Advisory and Executive Search engagements designed to guide clients in the attainment of their strategic plans. By maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of my clients' workforce, I help keep the government out, engaged employees in, and profits growing. The HR Audit I developed (WR2 HR Analysis) is instrumental to companies both healthy and distressed, reducing or eliminating human capital risk, and serving to help right-size, level-set, and propel growth. Whether your organization is experiencing significant organic growth, an operational or financial restructuring and turnaround, are going through or recently completed an M&A, let's talk about the health of your human capital.

    With over 20 years of experience including management, human resources, talent acquisition, project management, and as an owner/operator of my own business; in small, medium, and large enterprises; and both private and publicly traded companies, I understand and can relate to the challenges and struggles of executive business leaders. As such, I am uniquely qualified to advise on the BEST solutions to reduce risk, stabilize the operations, and lay the foundation for clients' future growth.
