Workforce Composition Metrics:
Sample Pay Report - Belgium
INTRODUCTION
In today’s highly competitive business arena, proactive managers require strategic know-how and
informed decision-making when deploying staff. To support the success of their operations – both current
and future – an analysis of workforce composition metrics is an essential tool. Understanding the
demographics of the current workforce by career level and by function provides the necessary data to fill
any skill or headcount gaps in the employee population going forward.
ple
For example, a workforce composition metrics analysis enables managers to have an answer to the
following questions:
•Do we need to hire more employees in a specific function or in a specific career level?
•Do we have too many employees in a specific function or in a specific career level?
•How many people are necessary to manage our finance department?
•How does our staffing situation compare to those of our peers?
Sa
m
With Mercer’s company versus market report, managers can identify areas where their organisation’s
workforce composition significantly differs from that of relevant comparison groups.
NOTE
“N” indicates the number of observations in each entry. This number varies from topic to topic,
depending on the number of companies that deliver data for each item.
READING THE REPORT
This report provides four types of analysis: general productivity level of the workforce, workforce
composition by career level, by function and by employment type. For the analysis of the workforce by
career level and by function, two different types of indicators are provided: the percentage (breakdown) of
employees by career level and by function, and the number of employees or full-time equivalents (FTEs)
supported by an employee in a career level or in a function.
Your company results are indicated in each of the tables and can be systematically compared to the
market. The notion of market can be considered at different levels: country, industry, revenue size and
company size.
Each section is always organised in the same way: The first table provides results for the entire country
sample with a set of different measures (average, median, quartiles); other tables that follow allow a
deeper analysis, on an average basis, by industry, by revenue size and by company size. The general
productivity level by industry, by revenue size and by company size is given in more detail with all
measures’ types (average, median, quartiles).The last table of each section provides a resume comparing
your company with your country sample, as well as with your specific markets (your industry, your
revenue size and your organisation size).

GENERAL PRODUCTIVITY LEVEL
The general productivity level of a company can be
measured by the revenue per full-time equivalent
(FTE). Calculated with the division of the revenue by
the total permanent FTEs, the revenue per FTE (also
known as the “human capital revenue factor”)
measures the organisation’s top-line financial
productivity and quantifies the value of the
workforce as a revenue generator.
Between 100
and 300
employees,
35.7%
The revenue per FTE for the entire sample, on average, is 450 thousand euros (0.45 million euros). For
example, it means that 100 FTEs generate 45 million euros.

specific career level by the total number of employees. This metric provides insights into the breakdown
of the workforce across different career levels.
At the entire country sample level, the percentage of executives is 3.97%. For half of the companies, the
percentage of executives falls between 1.64% and 4.55%.
