Legislative action in 1999 removed Higher Education from the Central
Personnel System. As a result, the State Board of Higher Education has
approved a change from the previous point-factor classification system to
a broadbanding system, effective July 1, 1999.
Broadbanding is an approach to compensation that focuses on performance
and market, uses a few, wide salary bands to deliver pay, and emphasizes
management pay decisions with expert human resource advice.
This new system is intended to be an improvement for employees and their
supervisors. Its advantages include: it broadens the focus from job
content and scope to include the knowledge, skills and abilities of the
individual doing the work, thus enhancing the pay for performance system;
better maintains a competitive job and compensation structure to aid in
recruitment and retention; and, streamlines administrative processes.
