GAO's Classification & Compensation Review

  • The following four principles are consistent with GAO's overall objective to attract and retain top talent both for today and tomorrow:

    • Assure that our classification and compensation systems result in equal pay for work of equal value over time.
    • Assure that our classification system reflects the roles and responsibilities that we expect GAO staff to perform.
    • Assure that our systems are reasonable and competitive.
    • Assure that all our related systems are both affordable and sustainable on the basis of current and expected resource levels.
