1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the compensation review on a fixed annual cycle, rather than adjusting pay ad hoc whenever someone happens to complain.'
We 'run a review' — the standard, simple collocation for carrying out a scheduled compensation process. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Reviewing pay only when someone raises a complaint instead of on a fixed cycle can ___ quiet, uncomplaining people falling steadily behind market rate.'
We say an ad hoc process will 'leave' quiet people falling behind — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting inequity. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every role against current external market data, since an internal comparison alone can drift years out of date without anyone noticing.'
We 'benchmark a role' — the standard, simple collocation for comparing pay against external market data. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ raises across teams before finalizing them, so a generous manager's team isn't systematically paid more than an equally strong, stingier one.'
We 'calibrate a raise' — the standard, simple collocation for aligning pay decisions consistently across managers. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the reasoning behind every decision to the employee directly, rather than a bare number changing with no explanation attached.'
We 'communicate reasoning' — the standard, simple collocation for explaining a compensation decision to the person affected. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
