Compensation
It is the policy of the State of North Carolina to compensate its employees at a level sufficient to encourage excellence of performance and to maintain the labor market competitiveness necessary to recruit, retain, and develop a competent and diverse workforce.
The Classification and Compensation Section ensures that the salary ranges for positions remain competitive with similar positions in the public and private sectors. Our Pay Plans are designed to promote parity for similar positions across agencies, support recruiting and retention of employees, and serve as the foundation for effective salary administration.
