Welcome to the Compensation and HRIM Divisions; we service over 25 City of Houston Departments.

The Compensation Division’s responsibilities include the design, implementation, revision, and general maintenance of the City’s compensation programs, classification system, pay structure, job analysis, and evaluations; along with interpreting federal, state, and local policies and regulations; and salary surveys.


Compensation & HRIM

With over 700 job classifications and 37 pay grades it is the responsibility of the Compensation Division to ensure that each classification is written correctly; assigned a level, pay grade, and FSLA code. We collaborate with the departments of the City of Houston to create and revise classifications in response to a rapidly changing work environment. This is accomplished through market analyses, surveys and the exchange of information with external organizations.
