This document provides details about a job evaluation case study conducted by Hongkong Electric Company in 1984. The company hired an external consultant to design and evaluate benchmark jobs to establish a new salary scale. Job descriptions were developed for benchmark positions through interviews. A benchmark committee evaluated the jobs and scored them on factors like knowledge, problem-solving, and accountability. Over 800 non-benchmark jobs were also evaluated by comparing them to benchmark jobs, with the results reviewed by a non-benchmark committee. The goals of the job evaluation were to increase pay fairness and reduce disparities between local and expatriate salaries.
