City of Broken Arrow, OK: Classification and Compensation Study

Evergreen Solutions was retained by the City of Broken Arrow to conduct a Classification and Compensation Study and Analysis to evaluate the present salary structure as compared to the specific job market for comparable positions in the public sectors.
