The median salaries for the six positions are similar to the National median grades and salaries reported by the United States government. This is because the grading of the positions is widely dependent on the employee’s educational attainment and skills similar to the grading system used by the United States Government.

The method of pay for a retail cashier is through commission. Here the cashier is paid in the month after the sale trade as specified by the product he sells. The payment rates and schedule are similar for purchases through the market place and their program. Police detectives and engineering managers are paid on base plus incentive arrangements. Here, they are compensated at 80% of the compensation plus an incentive component which offers them the chance to reward goal-oriented performance (Armstrong, 2003). Benchmarking productivity is crucial for maintaining the standards of the group. Registered nurses and landscapers are paid straight salaries. Here, they are paid a predetermined amount of cash annually. One of the effects of the compensation is a reduction in utilisation. The nurses and landscapers are no longer compensated for prescribing treatment and offering landscaping services respectively. Conversely, a mechanical engineer is paid on an hourly basis. Here, an engineer is paid their time using hourly rates. This computes the compensation by multiplying the number of hours entered on the transaction sheet by the hourly rate. An engineer is paid depending on the number of hours (Khan, & Jain, 2010).
