Executive Summary:

N/A

Background:

In November 2005, City Council first established the mandate to conduct a compensation or salary market comparison every three (3) years, based on a recommendation made by the Hay Group in its “Final Report to Council on Non-Union Compensation Programs”. Council re -affirmed the practice of undertaking a review of the non- union employees’ compensation every three (3) years upon approving in April 2008 a target pay at the 65 th percentile of the market, effective January 1, 2007.

Additionally, the Corporation entered into an agreement with the Civic Association of Non-Union Employees (CANUE), signed April 1, 2010, whereby a market salary review would be completed every three (3) years commencing in 2010, and that salaries would be maintained at no less than the 50 th percentile of the comparator municipalities
