NU Values is a compensation system that establishes work competencies and focuses on identifying and rewarding effective performance in relation to established job characteristics.
Leaders say they needed more flexibility to reward good performance.
The current NU classification and compensation system is outdated and does not adequately reflect changing job markets, employee skills and abilities. Instead, NU Values will change how performance is measured and how pay is determined. Defining jobs and recognizing performance will establish a framework for career-pathing, training and development and performance management. NU Value is an open, flexible system which will present employees and supervisors with clear objectives and paths for career growth. Its goal is to empower employees to take increased personal responsibility for job accomplishments.
