What are Salary Bands?

Salary band is the range an organization is willing to pay for a particular position, with the exact salary determined by potential factors such as candidate experience, internal pay equity, and candidate negotiations.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do you determine a Salary Band? There are many factors that go into determining a Salary Band or a Salary Range for any given role. An organization should do research to find the typical market rate for similar positions in the area, and use that as a starting point. From here, the Salary Band should be adjusted in-line with the organization’s compensation strategy and budget (offering above-market salaries to attract better talent, offering below-market salaries due to budget restrictions, etc). Lastly, a Salary Band should be cross-referenced with other internal salary information to ensure that all salary ranges are set fairly to avoid any risk of discriminatory imbalance.
