Spanish term

MIP (Mínimo Incremento Perceptible)

Spanish to English Social Sciences Human Resources hay method of job evaluation
Context:

Ejemplo de evaluación utilizando el Método Hay

Para llevar a cabo de forma correcta la cuantificación de las diferencias entre los distintos puestos en cada factor, se utiliza como unidad de medida el MIP (Mínimo Incremento Perceptible). Según este Sistema, que basa su experiencia en múltiples valoraciones, este MIP equivale a un 15 por ciento de incremento del valor del contenido del puesto; es decir, sigue una progresión geométrica de razón 1:15.

Hi everyone. This is from a training manual on competency-based human resources management. I have been looking at plenty of documents on the Hay method - there's plenty online - but cannot find an equivalent for this. I have found discussion of 15% differences as the "minimum observable" but nothing which exactly fits the above term, and I am unsure whether I am missing some fixed term here.
Any ideas?

Thanks very much for your help in advance. Much appreciated.
