Links pay to the depth or breadth of the skills, abilities, and knowledge a person acquires that is relevant to the work. Structures based on skill pay individuals for all the skills for which they have been certified regardless of whether the work they are doing requires all or just a few of those particular skills.
In contrast, a job-based plan pays employees for the job to which they are assigned, regardless of the skills they possess.

Basic Decisions • What is the objective of the plan?• What information should be collected?• What methods should be used to determine
and certify skills?• Who should be involved?• How useful are the results for pay purposes?

How Is SBP Different From aJob-Based Pay System?
Skills or skill units, rather than jobs are compensable
Mastery of skill units is measured and certified
Pay changes do not necessarily accompany job changes
Little emphasis placed on seniority in pay determination

Disadvantages of Skill-Based Pay
Average pay of employees likely higher
High labor costs, if productivity increases do not offset additional costs
SBP systems more complex
SBP systems require a major investment in training

Apply plan in as bias-free a manner as feasible
