Purpose

Authorizing a Contractual Agreement with McGrath Human Resources Group to Provide Professional Services to Conduct the Sauk County Classification and Compensation Analysis

Background

Sauk County government serves a population of approximately 65,750 residents.  The County currently has nearly 650 full-time and part-time employees, 550 of which are non-union.  Sauk County’s current compensation plan was developed in 2013 and implemented mid-year in 2014.  During the past 8 years, only isolated minor updates have occurred.  We have an aging workforce and over the next five years approximately 37% of our workforce will be eligible for retirement, and a valid compensation plan will be critical to our efforts to attract qualified replacements.
