Palmer & Associates' roots are in compensation program development, and compensation continues to be one of our principal areas of specialization.
In designing compensation programs, our goal is to leave our clients with an affordable, manageable employee pay administration system that:

• provides rational and consistent methods for determining pay rates
• achieves an appropriate competitive position in the market(s) from which staff are drawn
• is flexible enough to allow employees to be assigned to different tasks at different times, according to the firm's needs
• is compatible with established personnel policies and practices, and serves as a foundation upon which to build other Human Resources programs
