The research project concluded that Pay differential is an important concept in the HR world as it helps to ensure that employees are being fairly compensated for their work. Pay differential is a form of pay compensation that is used to recognize the differences in skill and knowledge levels, experience, and other factors that may affect the value of an employee's work. It is used to reward employees for their higher levels of knowledge, skill, experience, and other factors that may make them more valuable to the organization. From the research hard work findings, the academic expert recommended that Government of Uganda should augment on the budget meant to pay salaries of its workers and that people with similar qualifications, doing similar jobs should be paid the same amount of money in terms of salary or salary scales. This can be an impetus for better performance in Government Agencies, Departments and Ministries. It can be observed that such a scenario may expendite the process of growth and development in the country at large.
