Wage value advice
The wage value represents the economic value of an employee's labor, expressed in euros. This value is determined based on employability, pace of work, quality of work and any additional costs. What is expected of an employee varies by position.
But what if your employee does not meet this expectation (anymore), relative to "the healthy equal" in the same position? Due to illness or injury, for example. In such a case, a wage-value determination can offer a solution.
Investigating objective wage value
Our sister organization Puls specializes in conducting objective wage value surveys. They draw up a clear and workable wage value recommendation, provided the employee has worked in his or her position for at least three months. A reliable estimate is not possible in the case of complete prior absence from work.
What questions does the wage-value survey answer?
The wage-value survey answers questions such as:
The wage value recommendation comes about through a conversation with you as the employer; an interview with your employee and a comprehensive visit by an employment expert at the workplace.
No healthy equal available?
Wage value is determined in relation to a 'healthy peer' in the same position, working 8 hours a day. But what if there is no such reference within your organization, for example in an SME? In that case, we make a comparison with one or more standard positions from the broader industry or sector. This ensures that the research remains representative and reliable.
