No
A copy or brief description of the institution’s written policy stating its commitment to a living wage:
It is the goal of Northland College to pay at a competitive level in the job market. For non-exempt positions, this is the local market as reflected by Ashland and surrounding counties. For most exempt positions, this is either a regional or national market.
Pay ranges are updated regularly using cost of living figures, market considerations, and the College’s ability to pay.
While the job evaluation level is the usual structure in which pay is established, market considerations may supersede the evaluation system. An individual’s position may be moved up or down in the evaluation system as required by market considerations.
