WHAT WE DO
Harvard Compensation supports the University in attracting, motivating, recognizing and retaining a highly qualified workforce by providing effective pay programs.
Compensation works with leaders and human resources professionals across the University to establish a philosophy and framework for compensation. The department provides the technical infrastructure and analytic capability to ensure informed, data-driven compensation decision-making, internal equity, external competitiveness, and the alignment of employee incentives with organizational objectives.
