The total employer-provided compensation is a combination of base pay, whether it be salary or hourly wages, and additional benefits of financial value provided by the university. These benefits may include: Paid time-off such as vacation days, sick days, and holidays for example.

Compensation involves all the expenses paid by the employer for each employee such as overtime (as pre-approved) and insurance plan (percentage).
