Key features

European HR practitioners are rethinking how they manage compensation due to leaner budgets, functional centralisation, and an increasing recognition of the role of clear communication. Mercer's new report, Compensation Management in Europe, is the result of increasing client demand for information on not only how much to pay but also how to pay.

This new report presents our best thinking on the aspects of compensation management relevant to European organisations. Various Mercer consulting groups analyse compensation strategy and design, operations and delivery, the role of technology and communications, and the costs of compensation management. This report provides analysis and the context for the current position of compensation management in Europe and will prompt discussions on the evolving role of the compensation function and its future direction.

This survey report contains insights on employers' existing compensation philosophy, rewards strategies, key determinants of salary structures, and the prevalent elements in benchmarking employee-friendly compensation and budgeting for salary increases.

This report discusses the following crucial topics:

• What is compensation management?

• Context for change: Business and HR

• Compensation strategy/design

• Compensation operations and delivery

• Compensation technology

• Compensation communications

• Costs, risk and value

• Experiences in the US

• The future of compensation management
