1-9-6: WAGE DETERMINATION:
   The job descriptions within an occupational category will be compared to the descriptions from the sample municipalities agreed to by the Village Manager. When a job description from the Village and another or other communities substantially match, then a benchmark for that position is identified. The average maximum rate of pay for that position shall be determined by adding the maximum rate of pay for that benchmark and dividing that number by the number of communities for that benchmark. Thus, an average maximum rate of pay results for that type of position. The average maximum rate of pay shall be compared to the Village's maximum rate of pay for that benchmark position and an average dollar adjustment due that benchmark will be derived. The average adjustment due each benchmark within an occupational category shall be totaled, and an average shall be derived for an overall market adjustment for those positions that are not benchmarked. This is necessary because there may be no position or job description within the occupational category that can be benchmarked with the sample communities.
