Compensation

 

Compensation encompasses both wages and fringe benefits that employees receive in return for services rendered to the employer. The Medical University of South Carolina strives to ensure fair, consistent and equitable compensation practices for its employees, regardless of gender, race, age, nationality, religion, disability or veteran status.

The State Office of Human Resources, acting as an agent of the State Budget and Control Board, establishes and monitors the Compensation System including the classification listing, the pay band schedule and policies governing the administration of the overall Pay Plan.

At MUSC, the compensation of employees will be administered by the Department of Human Resources Management, in accordance with rules, regulations and guidelines provided by the State Office of Human Resources, as well as federal laws and regulations. The Medical University of South Carolina, as an agency of State government, utilizes a broadbanding pay system that features job classifications and ten pay band ranges.

Generally, special instructions are issued each fiscal year regarding the specifics of the pay policy authorized by the State Appropriation Act for the fiscal year.
