Evergreen Solutions was hired in 2024 by the City Norfolk to conduct a Compensation and Classification Study in two phases. In Phase I, Evergreen reviewed existing compensation plans to understand the current challenges facing the County in recruiting and retaining employees; provided the City with a review of benchmark cities and compensation policies; proposed a comprehensive plan; recommended the appropriate placement of each existing position on the proposed step plan; completed a compression analysis; and recommended implementation strategies for the updated pay plans. For Phase II, Evergreen will review internal equity, make FLSA determinations, and update job descriptions.
Note: Evergreen was previously hired in 2022 to provide Consulting Services for Compensation Program Transition.
