  1. Getting It up and Running:Practical Steps to Developing a Country Pay & Employment Model Jana Orac May 2003

  2. Existing Excel-based models • Custom-built, country-specific • Indonesia, Macedonia, Afghanistan, Russia, Pakistan, Zambia, Kyrgyz Republic • Generic templates • Fully automated, or modifiable • West Bank & Gaza, Kosovo

  3. Four main steps • Getting the data • Building the model • Developing client technical capacity • Promoting client use

  4. 1. Getting the data • Optimal data set • Current employment numbers, average base salary & allowance by grade and entity • Associated costs to budget (e.g. severance, pensions…) • Availability varies…from computerized payrolls to scattered paper records • Data cleaning is essential So… • Start early!

  5. 2. Building the model • Custom-built, country-specific – 1 week • Modifiable generic – 1 to 2 days • Automated generic – 1 hour

  6. User-friendliness is a must • Clear instructions in the file • Input cells for variables marked • Full disclosure of data or other issues • Charts to convey results • Local language versions? • Information on broader context (national and international)

  7. 3. Client technical capacity • Working-level staff needed to maintain and run the model • Skills in Excel, grasp of pay & employment principles • Challenges in finding the right people for hand-off

  8. 4. Promoting client use • Model = new mindset and approach • Managing expectations: model as magic answer vs. tool to test policy options, promote deliberation • Client use remains a challenge, but ongoing relationships help
