Integer Holdings

In many ways, Integer Holdings’ business is a matter of life and death. This 80-year-old company is a world leader in advanced medical design and manufacturing, providing the medical devices, components, and batteries that hospitals, doctors, and patients rely on every day.

With a footprint that spans 10 countries, four continents, and an approximately 9,000-person employee base, its compensation management has to be handled with surgical precision as well, to keep the operation going strong. The global “Great Reshuffling” post-COVID brought additional emphasis to ensuring Integer’s pay-for-performance compensation plan remained competitive—particularly in its vital manufacturing operations.

To align with recent trends, the compensation team began conducting an extensive, site-by-site global pay analysis of each position in every company location. They needed fast access to accurate, real-time market data about hundreds of job specialties to quickly ensure each range was in line with the current environment.

How did Integer’s compensation team accomplish all these objectives—and more? With a combination of their experience, commitment, and a little help from their Payscale solutions.

With Payscale, the compensation team has a centralized source for all market pricing. That means they can look at global pay practices in a holistic way for more efficient analysis and reporting.

When pricing a job, they go into “Pricing Projects” to find the project with that particular job listing. When looking for something specific to a job, they go to the “Job” tab. The timely data aids in the analysis process.

Also, once the Integer team loads their employee data into Payscale, the system is able to deliver information on who has that job today, what their pay is, and related reporting. Having everything in one place allows Integer’s compensation team to validate their market ranges and generate reports to show how they arrived at those ranges.

The fact that Payscale integrates with Integer’s HRIS saves time as well because the information flows from one system to another – there’s no need to manually transfer.
