National labor and employment firm Fisher & Phillips LLP is increasing its associate pay scale by an average of 8 percent, or about $10,000.

According to a firm press release, half of the raise came in the form of an increase in salaries, which went into effect June 1. The remainder will come via a bonus for associates that meet specific productivity and efficiency standards over a full year.

“All of our associates have benefited from this move in the form of increased salaries, but there is more available to them,” said Chairman and Managing Partner Roger Quillen. “We believe a material part of everyone’s compensation should depend upon meeting basic performance standards.  And we aren’t just talking about working and logging billable time. We measure and reward efficiency, too. This is what aligns our associates’ compensation with our clients’ interests.”
