Committee Recommendations
The Executive Committee submits the item to Council without recommendation.
Origin
Summary
The purpose of this report is to provide recommendations regarding organizational best practices to ensure a modern, affordable and competitive compensation policy and program is in place for all non-union employees. High performing organizations must have comprehensive best practices compensation policies and performance reward programs to optimize performance outcomes and effectively retain and attract high-performing non-union and senior management employees. The report addresses human resources best practices deficiencies in the current compensation policy and performance review program and provides recommendations for revised new performance review levels, performance financial rewards and the implementation of performance review target allocations that will help drive performance and lead a cultural performance management change at the City of Toronto.
City Council's approved pay policy sets salaries to be at the 75th percentile of the GTA public sector market; however, the City has not maintained its non-union and senior management salaries at this policy level. In the past five years the City's compensation decisions for non-union employees have negatively impacted the City's position in its comparator market. Reviews undertaken by Mercer in 2008 and by the Hay Group in 2012 have clearly demonstrated that managers' salaries and most pronouncedly senior managers' salaries are significantly below the approved 75th percentile of the comparative market, and in fact are more closely aligned with the 50th percentile of this market. As outlined in the Table that follows, it is important to note that employers in the GTA market comparator group have provided annual salary adjustments for non-union employees that are more in line with union settlements.
Further, the report identifies that the non-union/management employees salary increases have not been comparable to unionized employees over the past 5-year period (2007-2011). The City's non-union employees received -3.89% lower cumulative total general salary increases and Senior Management group received a -7.06% lower cumulative total general salary increases over the previous 5-year period versus unionized employees.

Senior Management Division Heads & Above |
6.92% |
- 7.06% [6.92% - 13.98%]
|
|
-6.54% [7.06%-13.60%] |
Therefore, given the significant differential, as per the above, recommendations contained in this report provide a four-year schedule of general salary increases for non-union employees and senior management to address this differential. The proposed increases will help to minimize any further gaps going forward, but do not address the impact of the differential over the previous 5 -year period.
As outlined and recommended in this report, a best practices high performing organization has a comprehensive compensation and performance reward program for its non-union and senior management employees that includes:
- Performance-based Merit Pay
- Variable Pay Program
- Competitive Salary Grades and Annual Salary Increases
The report's recommendations, supported by the Hay Group's review and advice, provide for the amendment of the current non-union employee and senior management compensation policy and reward program, to ensure a modern, affordable and competitive compensation policy is in place.
