Salary.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLRY), a leading provider of on-demand compensation, payroll and talent management solutions, announced today that it has expanded its set of functional job-competency models. Functional job-competency models are a complete role-based set of skills, behaviors, proficiencies and learning references that help employers and human resources professionals meet the rising need for insight into critical skills. Salary.com now offers over 1,000 unique job profiles containing functional and technical competency descriptions. Salary.com's off-the-shelf content provides critical data quickly -- helping clients execute key business initiatives, drive their talent management software and extract the full value from investments in HR technology.

Salary.com competencies have addressed over 300 global clients' complex and large-scale needs in implementing a high performance culture, including Northrop Grumman, U.S. Bancorp and Unisys. In addition to expanding the number of job competencies, the new release also includes the introduction of a new Software Industry Job Model, as well as new job families, jobs, competencies and technology tools relevant to the Insurance, Manufacturing, Retail and Information Technology industries.

"The expanded dataset reinforces Salary.com's commitment to competency-driven talent management. Our goal is to better serve customers who want to deploy competencies to manage performance, design learning programs and build a strong pipeline of internal leaders," said Doug Crisman, Salary.com vice president of talent management. "According to Bersin & Associates, while more than 90% of human resources professionals view competencies as critical to effective talent management, fewer than 30% have them well-implemented. Integrating a foundation of comprehensive competency data into an organization's talent management processes improves workforce planning and ensures the right people with the right skills are in the right jobs."
