Survey Highlights and Insights This report presents the results of the 28th annual Global Salary Increase Survey conducted by Aon Hewitt. The survey focuses on overall changes in employee compensation for the calendar year 2015 and on current projections for 2016. The survey spans 120 markets with submissions receivedduring July and August. Participants include service, manufacturing, and multi-industryorganizations.

The Canada report consists of 476 companies.

How Data is Collected The survey data is collected through multinationals that submit multicountry data and also from companies that are recruited locally and submit data for one single country. The salary increase budget information reported in this report encompasses data for all companies reporting data for Canada.

Key Insights

Economic and political global uncertainty is casting a pall over the compensation budgeting process for 2015. Organizations continue to remain apprehensive about increasing their fixed costs. The chart below shows the comparison between 2015 average actual salary increase for all employees and projected consumer purchase index (CPI) for 2015.

Companies are instead increasing their reliance on variable forms of rewards. Details on variable spending can be found in the country reports or in our Global Variable Compensation Measurement™ (VCM™) survey.

Special Note

Occasionally we are asked how survey antitrust rules apply to collecting and reporting salary increase information. In fact, some organizations request that they receive the report with any prospective information removed. Aon Hewitt believes that, because such data (as is presented in this report) is widely available and is sufficiently general in nature, it falls within standard survey safe harbor guidelines.

However, if your company’s legal counsel suggests taking a more conservative approach, we can provide a version of the report that excludes projected data.

High Potentials & Top Perfomers

Canada Salary Planning Report 2015 - 2016 35

Page 38: Canada Salary Planning Report - PeopleTalk Online

High Potentials and Top Performers

High Potentials—An elite group of employees who are seen as being capable of contributing to the organization in a role with greater complexity, impact, scope and scale than their current roles. They have the versatility to play

a number of roles in the organization; demonstrate the ability to see things from new perspectives and to quickly

adapt; would be difficult to replace due to the value that they bring to the organization; and consistently deliver

strong results.

Top Performers—A group of employees who clearly and consistently demonstrate extraordinary and exceptional accomplishments in all major areas of responsibility. Performance of this caliber is rarely equaled by others who

hold positions of comparable responsibility. A top performer is not automatically a High Potential.

Critical Talent/ Key Positions —Those positions that require specific knowledge and specialization. Would be difficult to replace them due to the value that they bring to the organization. Positions that support

the core business, without them the operations are at risk and with them profitability and growth is achieved.

Low Performers— A group of employees who clearly and consistently demonstrate a performance under the minimum expectations in mayor areas of responsibility. Low performers could be either or both in terms of

results or versus individual objectives or disruptive behaviors for the team or for the company efficiency and/or values.

Identification of High Potentials, Top and Low Performers and Key Positions64.6% of the responding organizations could identify their high potentials. 86.4% can identify their top performers.

Low performers can be identified by 78.8% and 70.8% could identify key positions.

Separate Merit Budget for High Potentials, Top and Low Performers and Key Positions4.1% of the responding organizations use a separate merit budget for high potentials (7.8%), for top performers (6.2%) and for

critical talent (4.7%).

Data Collection Terms The following are brief definitions of some of the concepts that are used within the data collection materials.

Mandatory Salary Increase Budget This is an increase that is mandated by either a government or by a union. It could apply to the entire company or to different groups in the organization.

Merit Salary Increase Budget The amount of any nonguaranteed, individual performance-based increases, including merit lump sums. The budget percentage is calculated by dividing the sum of increases granted/anticipated in the year, divided by the total salaries of all eligible employees, whether or not they received a merit increase.

General Salary Increase Budget Any increases given over and above the merit salary and mandatory increase. The budget percentage is calculated by dividing the sum of increases granted/anticipated in the year, divided by the total salaries of all eligible employees, whether or not they received a general increase. General increase includes market correction, special adjustment and promotional budgets.

Total Salary Increase Budget The total amount of all increases combined (that is, merit increases plus general increases plus mandatory salary increases).

Special Adjustment and/or Miscellaneous Budget The amount of any salary adjustment granted to an employee for a special, or unique, situation that is not typically covered by a merit increase. This would include market, equity, or “hot skills” adjustments. The budget percentage is calculated by dividing the sum of increases granted/anticipated in the year, divided by the total salaries of all eligible employees, whether or not they received a special adjustment and/or miscellaneous increase.

Promotional Budget The amount of any promotional increase granted to an employee for receiving a promotion. The budget percentage is calculated by dividing the sum of increases granted/anticipated in the year, divided by the total salaries of all eligible employees, whether or not they received a promotional increase.

Salary Structure Movement This is an increase that is applied to the salary grades and bands to reflect movements in the market. In other words, this represents an increase to the salary structure and not an individual or employee group increase.
