Where it helps
During the pay review, a manager checks where a team member sits against peers and the market before proposing an increase.
My take
MY PRACTITIONER VIEW
It gives managers context, not decisions. Make sure managers understand how the market and peer figures are worked out before they lean on them.
Things you can ask
Examples based on Oracle's notes. What works depends on your setup.
What it won't do
- Oracle cautions that comparing anything other than base salary with market data carries risk, because of different annualisation and how compensation types are read. Take care with those results.
- Pay frequency may not match annual market data, for example a monthly allowance compared with an annual market figure.
- Answers are limited to the manager's own permissions.
Good first agent?
Not yet. Its answers feed into pay decisions, so start with lower-risk agents and come to this one once your review and testing routines are proven.
Risk level: Higher risk. Its answers feed directly into decisions about an individual's pay.
Before you switch it on
- Whose data can it see?
- Who checks its answers?
- Have you explained where the market figures come from?
Rules to know about
Decisions about pay are among the employment uses the EU AI Act treats as high-risk. Keep a person making every pay decision, and check with your legal and data protection teams.
Setup at a glance
Open Setup at a glance for the setup steps. Select the agent's type label to see what that type means.
Test it after each update
Oracle updates arrive in test on the first Friday of the update month and in production on the third. Run these in between.
- Ask for a team member's base salary against the market and check the figures.
- Ask about an allowance and check whether the frequency is handled correctly.
- Ask about someone outside your team and check it refuses.
Watch out
It's separate from Compensation Advisor (for employees).
