Abstract:
The aim of the article is to develop a science-based practical scenario and argue the content of the main components of grading as a managerial innovation in designing basic wages in high-tech enterprises. The need to improve managerial approaches to forming an effective wage system as a determinant of attracting, securing and using human resources of high-tech enterprises is substantiated. The requirements to the development of remuneration systems in a competitive environment are formulated. The argument for the widespread dissemination of the traditional tariff model of remuneration, which has undergone a deep crisis in the market economy, is given. The need to modernize standard wage systems is noted. The quintessence of the article is the implementation of the theoretical and applied aspects of grading as an innovative approach to remuneration in the management practice of high-tech enterprises with consideration for peculiarities of their human resources and labor processes. It is emphasized that the competencies of the personnel of high-tech enterprises form the prerequisites for ensuring their competitive development. Attention is focused on the fact that labor remuneration, as a component of the complex motivational mechanism of high-tech enterprises, combines management tools that stimulate the manufacturing of high-tech products and high-tech services. A set of factors characterizing the significance of positions in high-tech enterprises is formed, which ensures their correlation with the size of wages. Alternative point factor matrices for assessing the significance of works / positions for high-tech enterprises with the same and different number of levels are proposed. A matrix describing the factors for assessing the significance of works / positions is developed. In the context of the effectiveness of wage systems, the feasibility of combining grading and performance management using key performance indicators is noted. The possibility for providing the differentiation and strengthening of individualization of wages is substantiated.

Keywords: high-tech enterprise, remuneration, basic salary, grades, grading, point factor matrix.
