Compensation comes up often during the recruitment process, but what happens when employees ask their manager about pay? Without insight into the strategy behind compensation, decisions can be misunderstood or misinterpreted.
Proactive pay communication is key. When employees understand how and why they’re compensated, they feel valued and trust the process. Clear communication also helps navigate challenges like wage compression, ensuring pay decisions align with your mission, values, and strategic priorities.
According to Michael Maciekowich of Astron Solutions, AAIM’s trusted compensation expert, explains, effective pay communication helps employees see the bigger picture—not just their paycheck, but how their compensation reflects company goals and values.
