Adding and modifying Bands

Pay bands are structured salary ranges that group jobs with similar value within an organization. They provide flexibility to adjust salaries based on factors like experience, performance, and market conditions. Pay bands are essential for promoting fairness, ensuring market competitiveness, and supporting career growth. Most importantly, they help align employee compensation with the organization’s broader compensation strategy.

In Keka, you can easily create, edit, and delete these pay bands to suit your organizational needs. This article walks you through the process of managing pay bands in your Keka HR Portal.
