Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

A range is the space between the minimum and maximum pay for the type of work or role an employee satisfies in an organization.

Answer option D is incorrect. A range is not assigned to employees worth based on incentives.

Answer option A is incorrect. Ranges are not federally mandated so this choice is not valid.

Answer option C is incorrect. The choice isn't valid because it's not the worth of the responsibilities, but the range of pay from minimum to maximum for employees.

D) Ad hoc arbitration? More like 'ad hoc I have no idea what I'm doing' arbitration.

Interest arbitration, huh? Sounds like a fancy way to say 'let's settle this with a coin flip'.
