Career Roadmap Position Mapping

Position mapping was the opportunity for managers and staff, unit HR partners and senior leaders to review and confirm where current roles fit in Career Roadmap. Approximately 26,000 in-scope staff were mapped to the career framework.

This process incorporated active dialogue between stakeholders and HR Compensation. The extended time frame, which started July 2019, engaged as many stakeholders as possible in order to ensure fairness and consistency in the process and build confidence in the outcome.
