CALCULATION TEMPLATE

This worksheet includes a template for calculating compensation scale ratio. Organizations are welcome to use a different template as long as the submitted data meets the documentation requirements.

COMPENSATION SCALE RATIO

When calculating the compensation scale ratio 1:X, 1 signifies the lowest employee aggregate wage, and X signifies the highest employee aggregate divided by the lowest employee aggregate wage.

EXAMPLE:

  • The lowest employee aggregate wage is $50,000
  • The highest employee aggregate wage is $200,000

In this example, the compensation scale ratio is 1:4 ($50,000/$200,000).
