# Offer Salary Band Internal Equity Check

## Inputs
Proposed offer, the salary band for the level, current team salaries at that level and the equity review policy.

## Workflow
1. Locate the offer within the band: below, at or above midpoint.
2. Compare with current employees at the same level and location.
3. Flag offers that invert the internal order without a documented reason.
4. Return the comparison without approving or rejecting the offer.

## Output contract
Offer | band midpoint | internal range | position | equity flag | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional offer at 9,20,000 against a band midpoint of 8,75,000; two current analysts at the same level earn 8,40,000 and 8,55,000. Flag the offer for equity review, not rejection.

## Review gates
Re-check location and level adjustments before flagging. The check surfaces equity risk; the decision stays with the approver.
