From service awards to KBR's superannuation benefits, we are proud to foster a culture of recognition and rewards that drives our collective success.*
* Program eligibility varies based on your employment terms and position.
Service Award
At KBR, our employees are our greatest asset, and we're dedicated to creating a positive and supportive work environment where you can thrive. And we understand that our employees' dedication and commitment are essential to our success.
To show our appreciation for your hard work, we offer an invitation to select a special gift at milestone anniversaries.
Mercer Superannuation Contributions
Get more out of your finances through our world-recognised superannuation. You’ll receive insurance on your superannuation, a variety of investment choices, consolidation on your superannuation, and even general advice from skilled investment managers — all at no cost to you.
And you can even receive Life and Total Permanent disability coverage through the default superannuation.
Additional Superannuation Contributions
We offer all regular/project hire employees the opportunity to use funds from your before-tax salary to put toward additional superannuation contributions.
These contributions are taxed at a concessional rate, which means you’ll reduce the tax on your take-home pay!
Pay Process Transparency
At KBR, we value our people and are committed to providing our employees with fair wages and career growth. That’s why we established and work to maintain a consistent compensation structure across all of our global offices. We’re always looking to enhance and refine our pay practices, so you can count on us to provide you with meaningful insights into your compensation and keep you informed along the way about the measures we’re taking to ensure your pay is competitive and equitable.
How We Determine Pay
Your Performance
We believe in acknowledging and rewarding our high-performing employees for going above and beyond. It’s about making sure our people feel valued and want to grow with the company. We’re set on sustaining an environment where your dedication doesn’t go unnoticed. As a result, your performance is taken into careful consideration when determining your compensation.
External Markets
We aim to pay our employees a fair wage that is competitive within the job market, and so our pay ranges are based on market survey data. To accurately benchmark salaries and calculate compensation for each position, KBR purchases 30 – 40 global compensation surveys annually. KBR’s Compensation Team analyses this market data each year and assesses if any change to our ranges is needed.
Determining where an employee’s salary falls within the pay range is based on multiple factors, including qualifications, previous work experiences, certifications, contract requirements, time in position, location, and performance.
Global Job Classification Structure
A job classification structure is a system to help organise jobs within a company. KBR maintains a consistent job classification structure globally with approximately 2,200 job codes within 297 job families across 33 geographic regions. The global job classification structure categorises our employees’ job titles, job descriptions, and career levels to help us set fair and consistent compensation and provide career progression opportunities.
How We Ensure Pay Equity
KBR’s HR/People Team partners work closely with managers to educate and assist in establishing and maintaining equitable pay decisions throughout all stages of the employee life cycle.
What We're Doing Now
As part of KBR’s ongoing commitment to provide equitable pay, we’ve also taken the following actions.
Developing Pay Equity Dashboards for managers and HR to continuously monitor the pay equity data for their teams.
Providing ongoing manager training to guide managers in making compensation decisions for their team during salary review periods.
Creating Compensation Review Dashboards to allow managers and HR to track pay equity changes in real time during the Salary Review Process.
