Compensation Philosophy

The City of Loveland seeks to attract, hire, retain and engage team members who understand and embrace our vision, mission, and values. We prioritize safety, service, collaboration, dedication, innovation, accountability, and integrity. We value and recognize our employees who perform well and those looking to grow in their careers. Therefore, our goal is to provide a total rewards package that aligns with market. In addition to compensation, the total rewards package includes wellness-focused health and welfare benefits; promotes professional development; recognizes performance; provides retirement resources; and supports work life balance.

The City of Loveland is committed to the ongoing evaluation of our compensation programs and practices. The compensation program is administered with consistency and without discrimination.

As a public employer, the city, strives to provide a competitive, market-based, and fiscally responsible compensation program. The program must be flexible enough to ensure that the city is able to recruit and retain a highly qualified workforce, while providing the structure necessary to effectively manage the overall compensation program within budget. The compensation program for City of Loveland employees is a pay for performance and market based program that strictly adheres to operational and budgetary constraints. The market comparisons are benchmarked against validated data by industry, size, and location.

The City compares salary information to other comparable positions found in mid to large size organizations, including both public and general industries within the State of Colorado. While employee pay adjustments are based on merit, we conduct an annual review for every position within our pay plan to maintain a competitive compensation program.
