Career Banding is the North Carolina statewide classification and compensation system developed by the Office of State Human Resources (OSHR) for SHRA and focuses on demonstrated competencies as required by the business need of the organization.
Each position requires a particular set of knowledge, skills, and abilities (i.e. position competencies), based on the department’s needs for the position.
EHRA stands for Exempt from the North Carolina Human Resources Act. EHRA positions are classified into one of three categories established by the UNC Board of Governors:
1) Senior Academic and Administrative Officers (SAAO) – Tiers I & II,
2) Faculty
3) Instruction, Research, and Information Technology (IRIT)
Job families are major groupings of jobs that represent general fields of work where career paths are identified and career planning is emphasized.
The Pay Factors (F.A.I.R.) have been established by OSHR for equal consideration of salary adjustments.
Each role has its own unique pay band, and three position competency levels: Contributing, Journey, and Advanced.
