The world's largest and most comprehensive employee compensation resource
As employers grapple with stagflation, pandemic recovery, remote working and the labor shortage, how much to pay your employees has never been more delicate nor complex. More than ever, the quality of the employee compensation information you use is critical.
Mercer has the world's largest and most comprehensive workforce rewards database – so you can always be sure you are making the right remuneration decisions.
Making employee compensation decisions in complexity
It’s a complicated time to attract and retain talent. When it comes to employee compensation – a fundamental tool in the workforce rewards toolbox – there are now arguably more factors to consider than at any other time:
- How do you know you are paying fairly across your geographically diverse locations?
- Are you over- or under-paying against industry standards?
- How do you balance market-wide wage stagnation with compensating becoming a resignation impetus?
- How do you assemble the elements you need to build a market-leading employee rewards program?
- When is the right time to do an employee compensation audit?
- Can you justify your employee compensation decisions?
- What does a good employee compensation strategy look like now?
- Given all the factors in flux, do you need the expertise of a compensation consultant?
Mercer is the perfect partner for answering all these critical questions and more with our suite of compensation surveys, and consultant services.
