Mapping your employees' locations, levels, and jobs to their Figures equivalents is an essential step in the data normalization process. This process allows you to compare your organization's data with our comprehensive data pool, which consists of information from various clients across Europe, each with unique job titles and leveling grids. By establishing a baseline for comparison through our mapping grid, you can accurately evaluate the differences in salary driven by these three variables.

Understanding and conducting proper mapping in Figures ensures that your organization can make meaningful comparisons, assess compensation policies, and determine the individual market positioning of your employees.

Locations, levels, and jobs are the main drivers for salary differences and must be considered for accurate comparisons. That's why the very first steps of the onboarding process, after importing your data, are focused on ensuring you properly map these three elements to their Figures counterparts. By carefully completing this initial mapping, you can unlock the full potential of the Figures platform and gain valuable insights into your organization's performance.
