This survey report for Kenya presents a rich profile of current market conditions within the NGO Community. The

NGO Local Pay survey partners have worked with leading NGOs to ensure that the most relevant jobs and most

representative employers have been engaged to provide a tailored picture that is both comprehensive and focused.

1. Introduction

In any labour market, accessing consistent and relevant compensation data is a challenge. In an emerging

market employers face operating conditions where standard approaches to data collection and aggregation not

only do not often apply, but these approaches can contribute to anomalies in the market profile.

Developing country markets are distinct from more developed labour markets in two broad areas: (1) depth and

structure of available information and (2) volatility in market conditions.

Understanding Developing Country Markets

Through our focus on developing country markets, Birches Group not only has developed a deep understanding

of the forces which shape compensation in these locations; we have developed analytical tools and a

methodological approach tailored to address these factors. This approach is built around creating a relevant

context to assess and frame the market conditions. It is reflected in the Birches Group methodology both in the

manner in which job comparisons are established and in how salary data is aggregated.

Fundamental to this approach are two elements: only trained Birches Group compensation specialists establish

job comparisons following direct interviews with employers. Job leveling goes beyond simple functional and title

comparison to include an examination of the structural context. This provides a true assessment of

comparability.

With respect to data, for all jobs where a match is established, salary data not only for current incumbents is

collected but the actual structural ranges focusing on hiring rates, attainable maxima and market reference

positions are also collected. This structure data provides “bookends” for the actual compensation data. It

enables an analysis of the compa-ratio within the employer regarding the position of its staff to its target market

position and most importantly over time it enables an assessment of the factors affecting pay movement beyond

responding to market conditions.

The Birches Group Approach

The collaboration between Birches Group, Inside NGO and People In Aid to create a dedicated rich market

survey of the NGO community has been an exciting undertaking. This survey report is the outcome of this

endeavor. We are equally grateful to all the participating NGOs for the time and effort in providing the required

salary and benefit information.

We are hopeful that the information provided will be useful to NGOs in managing local national compensation.

We equally recognize that this effort is a work in progress. We seek your detailed feedback to further improve

and build upon this initiative to create an ongoing service which will provide dynamic information on market

conditions and enable the NGO Community to more effectively manage staff compensation.

The Survey Report

The report which follows details the data collected from the participating employers. Information is presented

from several perspectives and covers the full range of salary and benefit provisions. Birches Group

compensation specialists are available to answer questions regarding the data and the findings. We can be

. Again we are most grateful for everyone’s participation and support. We

look forward to receiving your questions and feedback.

2. Market Overview

Kenya is the main trade port regionally in East Africa. It maintains a liberalized trade system that could give Kenya a

boost in GDP but with recent political turmoil, corruption and drought, the population of those below the poverty line

have increased. Although there was some political instability after the 2007 elections, the current government has been

able to implement policies that have helped the local market - creating new jobs by expanding the service sector has

also helped reduce unemployment. The government has implemented a fiscal stimulus to help the economy get out of

high inflation. Average inflation increased by 0.1% from 3.5 % in June 2010 to 3.6% July 2010; however the annual

average inflation continued to fall to 5.0 % from 5.4% in July 2010.

A total of nineteen international NGOs participated in the second Kenya LiNGO survey of 2010, with a total of 1,120

incumbents. The survey looks into the current market practice in terms of the compensation packages offered in the

NGO community. Most of the organizations included in the survey focus on advocacy, relief, population services, and

refugee support.

All survey participants have established offices in the capital, Nairobi, while some participants have also set up field

offices across various locations in Kenya. It was noted that some organizations differentiate pay between their main

office and field locations, with a general practice of higher pay in Nairobi due to differing criteria required for employees

in main offices. However, several employers do provide hardship type allowances to their field employees. A number of

employers use Nairobi as their operations in Somalia - these organizations are commonly directed towards refugee

support and relief. The compensation packages of the majority of surveyed employers include a variety of cash and

in-kind benefits, most commonly recreation benefits, transportation and housing allowances, as well as bonuses.

There is no national medical scheme implemented by the government, however by law employers must provide

medical insurance to employees and commonly medical insurance also covers immediate family members. Kenyan

law also requires both employer and employee to contribute to the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) and most

surveyed organizations provide a supplementary retirement scheme in addition to the NSSF.

The above chart is designed to provide a summary overview of the survey results. Birches Group survey benchmark

jobs are classified into 14 distinct levels or grades. This chart shows the average total compensation for all of your

jobs matched at each level compared to the local labour market. The total compensation values displayed in this

chart include base salary, fixed cash allowances, variable cash and in-kind benefits, but exclude a valuation of

pension and medical plans. For more details on which of your jobs were matched, and a comparison to the market

level for each one, see the Comparative Table in the next section, and the Overall Market Data by Quartile in Section

5. Detailed market information for each job in the survey is contained in Part II of this report.

4. Your Jobs vs. the Market

The table in this section provides a comparison of your total gross compensation by job to the local labour market

for your matched jobs. The total gross compensation includes base salary, fixed cash allowances, variable pay and

in-kind benefits, but excludes a valuation of pension and medical plans. The values in the “Your Compensation”

column represent the average of the values you provided us for each job. The compa-ratio column represents the

relationship of your average gross compensation for each job to the overall market average. A compa-ratio of 95%

suggests that you are 5% behind the market average while a compa-ratio of 105% suggests you are 5% ahead of the

market average.
