Faith in Action 2: Being a Fair Employer

Part of The Wi$dom Path

Preparation for Activity

Description of Activity

With relevant congregational leaders (often the personnel committee, governing board, and parish minister or head of staff), review the fair compensation guidelines. If you are a fair compensation congregation, make plans to publicize this status and explain to the congregation the ethical basis upon which fair compensation rests. If you are not a fair compensation congregation, seek help from a regional Compensation Consultant and make an action plan to become one. Explain your action plan and the ethical basis upon which it rests to your congregation, seeking broad support.
