Managers are responsible for completing the compensation allocation process for the employees assigned to them. Additionally, if you have a manager as a direct report, once they have submitted their tasks, you need to review them.
During this process, you’ll review personalised guidelines made for each employee based on the combination of their company's pay philosophy and each employee's data.
To complete compensation allocation tasks, watch the video or follow the steps below.
