Le Moyne College compensates members of our work community adequately to attract and retain them and to promote fairness among them.
Le Moyne College is committed to a compensation philosophy which:
- Is consistent with its Jesuit Identity;
- Supports the College’s mission by rewarding employees who are committed to the mission;
- Supports the College’s Strategic Plan.
Compensation determinations depend on many factors. The College compares the salaries of employees with the salaries for similar positions in the relevant labor market to ensure that it attracts and retains employees. The College compares salaries of employees among others with comparable responsibilities within the College to ensure that we promote fairness and internal pay equity.

- Definitions:
- Programs represent significant, ongoing areas of responsibility or major initiatives that an employee manages or contributes to as part of their job. They are typically larger in scope, have longer timelines, and often involve multiple components and activities.
- Components are distinct and identifiable parts or sub-initiatives within a larger program. They are more focused than programs but still encompass a set of related activities working towards a specific sub-goal or deliverable within the overall program.
- Activities are the specific tasks, actions, and duties that an employee performs on a regular or ad-hoc basis to contribute to the components of a program. They are the day-to-day responsibilities that directly lead to tangible outputs or progress.
