There has been a steady increase in the use of job evaluation for all types of jobs in South Africa. The concern for unit labour costs makes it vitally important for organisations operating in highly competitive markets, to ensure that the grading level of their employees accurately reflects the relative importance of their jobs to the organisation.

Properly introduced and maintained, job evaluation can help lay the foundation of fair and orderly pay structures.
