The Town of Smithers is requesting proposals from qualified consultants/ consulting firms to complete an exempt compensation and benefits review for exempt staff and establish a policy framework for compensating exempt within the Town of Smithers.
The Town of Smithers last conducted an exempt salary review in 2022 but has not reviewed it’s total compensation package since it was implemented in 2008. Since the 2022 review, the market for skilled local government professionals has become increasingly competitive and local economic pressures including affordable housing and inflation have made it difficult to recruit and retain qualified employees. Further, the Town formally introduced a middle management group in 2024.
