    Solution

    Broadbanding means having extremely wide salary bands, much more encompassing than with traditional salary structures. A typical salary band has a 40 percent gap between its minimum and maximum, but broadbanding may have 100 percent difference. Large bands are created to support a restructuring. It combines and consolidates the number of levels or job grades.
