Classification and Compensation

The Classification and Compensation Office of Human Resources coordinates the University's staff job-classification process. The Class/Comp Office assists with requests from campus departments regarding:

  • Establishment of new staff positions
  • Reclassification of existing positions when duties have changed
  • Updating of job descriptions on filled or vacant positions
  • Analysis and recommendation on appropriate compensation ranges

The Class/Comp Office maintains the University's listing of current staff job titles and the pay grade assignment for each title. The office coordinates Valdosta State University's participation in comparative external-market salary surveys for staff positions, and uses such market survey information to help benchmark the University's own staff compensation ranges. The office is available to consult with campus units on strategic job design and staffing issues.
