8.2.7 Tracking Pay Scale for Gender Equity
8.2.7 Tracking Pay Scale for Gender Equity
Systematic Measurement & Annual Auditing: To operationalize Indicator 8.2.6 (Employment policy pay scale equity), BMC systematically tracks, measures, and audits gender representation and pay scale equity across all academic and administrative tiers through three institutional mechanisms:
Annual Workforce & Compensation Auditing: Conducted annually between January and March across all college branches, BMC’s Workforce Planning process mandates the collection and consolidation of master HR data defining headcount, employee grade/academic title, specialization, Saudization ratio, male-to-female ratio, and current/projected salaries across every department and program. This enables HR, Deans, and the Corporate Executive Team (COO/CAEO) to audit compensation structures and verifies a 1:1 base-pay ratio between male and female staff within identical grades and qualifications.
Standardized Performance & Increment Tracking: Launched annually on April 1st via the digital HRIS Performance Management System (HRIS-PMS), employee appraisals use standardized, weighted criteria approved by the Head of HR, Chief of Quality, Chief of Academics, and COO (Teaching & Learning 60–65%, Behavioral Competencies 30%, Research 5%, Community Service 5% for faculty; Job-Specific Performance 70–80% and Behavioral Competencies 20–30% for admin/technical staff). HR co-appraises staff supervised for less than 6 months and conducts a mandatory HR Final Review to validate rating fairness and eliminate gender bias before linking scores to salary increments or promotions.
Longitudinal Female Progression & Mentoring Tracking: BMC tracks gender parity across its talent pipeline using Oracle PeopleSoft, SIS, and quarterly Red-Amber-Green (RAG) KPI dashboards, supported by institutional mentoring schemes where over 75% of participants are women.
