The compensation policy of the World Bank Group rests on two foundation principles:
- Providing competitive market-based salaries
- Rewarding individual performance
In order to maintain the ability to recruit and retain qualified staff, the Bank Group reviews the salary structure annually and, when necessary, adjusts the salary structure based upon measurement of local market movement. Based on the staff member¡¯s annual performance appraisal, the staff member will receive a corresponding salary increase. In cases of extreme change in local market conditions or following a period of high inflation, special measures may be considered in country offices.
