Determination/Confirmation of Comparator Agencies Sample Clauses

Determination/Confirmation of Comparator Agencies. The selection of comparator agencies is considered a critical step in the study process. We will use the following factors to identify appropriate comparators and receive approval before proceeding with the compensation data analysis. Our recommended methodology is that we involve the City Council and/or the City Manager in the decision-making process of agreeing as to which agencies are included, PRIOR to beginning the study. Our experience has shown that this is the most successful approach. The factors that we review when selecting and recommending appropriate comparator agencies include:  Organizational type and structure – While various organizations may provide overlapping services and employ some staff having similar duties and responsibilities, the role of each organization is somewhat unique, particularly in regard to its relationship to the citizens it serves and level of service expectation. During this iterative process, the City’s current/prior list of comparators and the advantages/disadvantages of including them/others will be discussed.  Similarity of population served, City demographics, City staff, and operational and capital improvement budgets – These elements provide guidelines in relation to resources required (staff and funding) and available for the provision of services.  Scope of services provided – While having an organization that provides all of the services at the same level of citizen expectation is ideal for comparators, as long as the majority of services are provided in a similar manner, sufficient data should be available for analysis.  Labor market – The reality of today’s labor market is that many agencies are in competition for the same pool of qualified employees. No longer do individuals necessarily live in the community they serve. Therefore, the geographic labor market area (where the City may be recruiting from or losing employees to) will be taken into consideration when selecting potential comparator organizations.
