Pay and Reward Specialists

Ashworthblack is one of the very few HR Consultancies specialising in Pay & Reward.

We offer a range of Compensation & Benefits services:

• Reward Strategy
  We can help you design and implement the complete strategy for compensating, rewarding and motivating staff which will enable the company to meet its short term and long term objectives.
• Salary Reviews
  We design and implement a planned salary review, removing the “gut feel” and replacing it with a fair and consistent approach: guidelines and processes are put in place, jobs are benchmarked against market rates and recommended salaries are produced within budget.
  
  Even though companies may review salaries regularly, with more companies being hit with Equal Pay Claims it is extremely important to use a fair and consistent approach to the salary review.
• Job Evaluation
  Most successful Equal Pay claims occur as a result of the company not using an analytical job evaluation scheme to measure job size, with jobs having been assigned to salaries or pay grades wrongly. Ashworth Black Ltd can work with you to design a bespoke analytical Job Evaluation Scheme to suit the needs of your company.
• Pay/salary Structures
  We have experience in designing pay structures not only to match the needs and culture of your company, but also to conform to Equal Pay Audit standards.
• Performance/Contribution Pay
  It is generally agreed that the introduction of a Performance Management System increases the performance of a company- some argue by as much as 20% on the bottom line!
  We can design a performance pay or contribution pay system to link into your Performance Management system, or even design your Performance Management System.
• Bonus and Incentive Schemes
  Schemes which reward individual, team, department or company performance or a mixture of one or more of these four types of performance against set targets can be designed to suit your company.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

• Flexible Benefits
  More and more companies are offering flexible benefits as a way of offering employees a choice of benefits to suit their lifestyle, age or stage of career. We design and implement such schemes.
• Travel Club
  Ashworth Black Ltd has negotiated an exclusive employee benefit with one of the biggest internet travel companies to provide your employees with fantastic tailor made holidays at discount prices.
