Duke University Health System administers compensation policies and programs that reflect the value of job duties and responsibilities, offer competitive and equitable pay, and provide opportunities for pay growth based on
available resources and performance contributions.
Broadband Pay Structure
Duke University Health System is moving to a broadband pay structure that consists of 13
pay bands as compared the prior pay structure that included more than 420 pay ranges.
The features of the DUHS broadband pay structure include the following:
- Affords greater flexibility and consistency with fewer salary levels/bands
(reduced by 40%)
- Enables salary growth through professional development within the band without the need to reclassify jobs
- Supports managers in hiring, transferring, and managing performance by establishing a single consistent structure and set of pay policies
Market Target
Every job within a band is assigned to one of the three targets based on the market median for the work being performed. This market target is defined as the pay rate generally recognized as competitive pay for a highly experienced person in that job.
Each market target has a range of competitiveness defined as 80 percent of the market target and 120 percent of the market target. Generally, this range of competitiveness is similar to the pay range minimum and maximum from prior pay structure.
Developing staff will likely be paid less than the market target, while top performers can progress beyond the target rate.
