Title
NJDOT Compensation Scan and Retention Study
Abstract

With noticeable staff turnover in certain employment classifications, NJDOT engaged Cambridge Systematics (CS) to conduct the Compensation Scan and Retention Study. This scope of work is focused on researching and collecting information on compensation and retention of employees utilized by municipalities and county transportation agencies, private transportation agencies and state DOTS to identify current and best practices related to employee compensation for the NJDOT employment series: Automotive Mechanic, Highway Operations Technician, and Electrical Mechanic. The study findings aim to ensure that the Department’s practices and procedures for compensation and general employment practices are aligned and competitive with nearby agencies, as well as nationally. The objective of this research is primarily to better understand compensation for the positions of interest in order to support and provide proper justification for internal adjustments.
