bérezése

Bérezése is the process of determining wages and salaries for employees within an organization or sector. It encompasses base pay, bonuses, allowances, and other forms of compensation, and is guided by a company’s remuneration policy as well as broader labor market conditions.

The practice aims to balance internal equity—fair pay differences between different roles and levels within the organization—with external competitiveness, ensuring salaries reflect market rates to attract and retain talent. It is also constrained by legal and regulatory requirements, such as minimum wage laws and rules governing equal pay, as well as financial considerations like budgeting and profitability.

Common methods used in bérezése include job evaluation, which assesses the relative value of positions to inform pay structures; market-based pay, where salaries are aligned with external salary surveys; and the use of pay grades or bands that group jobs into levels with defined compensation ranges. Additional elements include merit or performance-based pay, incentive plans, seniority-based increases, and cost-of-living adjustments. Collective bargaining may also shape pay scales in unions or public-sector contexts.

The process typically involves job analysis and evaluation, data gathering from salary surveys, the design of a pay structure, budgeting, approval by relevant management or governance bodies, and communication to employees. Ongoing monitoring ensures pay remains fair, compliant, and aligned with organizational objectives. Trends in bérezése include greater pay transparency, emphasis on pay equity, and increased use of data-driven and performance-linked compensation.
