Compensation and Benefits Compensation—A Package Deal At Bliss, TOTAL COMPENSATION means the combination of pay programs, benefit plans, and quality of work/life programs offered to you. Almost half of every dollar Bliss spends goes to provide pay and benefits. The total compensation package provided by Bliss goes far beyond the cash value of your paycheck. See your immediate supervisor for details on benefits available to you.
Your Pay The company’s pay program is progressive and designed to maintain a competitive position by bringing wages and salaries in line with local and national economic conditions. On a 12 (twelve)month basis, management reviews extensive market data and decides on adjustments and modifications to the wage and salary programs. These decisions are based on: • The relative competitive position of our pay program in the labor market • National and local economic conditions • Company’s financial ability to provide such pay increases. The total compensation package provided by Bliss goes far beyond the cash value of your paycheck. The total compensation package means the combination of pay and benefits programs that provide financial security both today and in the future and many opportunities for you and your family. Your actual salary or wage is a confidential matter between you and your manager. It is based on your position, job knowledge, qualifications, and performance. Feel free to discuss questions about the compensation program with your manager or your Human Resources Representative.
How you are paid Our Pay Objective The company’s objective is to maintain competitive pay levels for jobs, which require similar skills, effort, and responsibility as those in leading local or national companies that compete with Bliss for employees. To achieve this objective, your pay may include several components in addition to your base salary or wage such as geographic pay differentials, special licenses, overtime, etc. You are paid on a biweekly basis on alternate Fridays with one week of pay held in arrears. You will be paid either by check or direct deposit to your bank. At this time direct deposit is only available for salaried employees. Hourly employees will receive their pay in a check form.
Overtime Your manager will try to maintain agreeable work schedules while meeting service-level commitments, and will make every effort to notify you, as far in advance as possible when you are needed to work overtime. You are expected to comply with and work all assigned time. All Overtime must be approved by Management and be signed off on. Salaried employees do not receive overtime premiums.
Your Benefits Bliss requires a year minimum employment prior to receiving benefits. To find out what benefits you are eligible for and are available to you, please contact your immediate supervisor for details.
