Grades and Expectation Profiles
Versioned level systems, expectation profiles per role, level assignment and calibration. Level of responsibility, qualification and compensation are related but distinct.
Partially published; research continues

Published results
Research note, in Russian: Canonical/runtime promotion remains governed by the package allocation, identity and dependency holds.

Deep research questions
- How are job level, skill level and performance rating distinguished?
- What evidence is sufficient to assign a grade?
- How are migrations between local ladders handled in a company merger?
Verifiable invariants
- A grade specifies the scheme version
- A level mapping may be partial
- An assignment decision does not change the salary automatically
End-to-end acceptance scenario
Map two ladders of different dimensionality, preserve incomparability and the revision history without overwriting assessments.
Negative case
Middle in two companies is declared one global level without a crosswalk.
Approaches to compare
- HR Open: exchange of HR data
- W3C ORG and ESCO/SFIA: relationships, skills and levels of responsibility
- HRIS/ATS/LMS practice and independent verification of outcome measurement via SPACE

Result requirements
Every card is executed together with the full research contract: definitions, fields and cardinalities, lifecycle, sources, data mastership, rights, the five object facets, at least eight invariants, positive and negative examples, dependencies, migration and applicability limits.
