2012 Multi-Industry Market Competitive Compensation Survey

The 2012 Multi-Industry Market Competitive Compensation Survey is organized by major metropolitan area and includes positions found at all types of employers. The salary survey provides local and regional wage data to ensure organizations have access to the labor market specific to their geographic area and can make sound hiring and compensation decisions. Salary survey participants have the ability to create standard and custom wage reports by drilling down to the appropriate competitive peer groups based on size, location, revenue, industry type, and non-profit or for-profit status. Custom peer groups are easily created and provide a great deal of flexibility for reporting purposes while maintaining confidentiality of compensation data.

The compensation survey covers over 170 cross-industry positions, including those in mid-management and supervision, professional and technical, and entry-level clerical and support jobs. Base pay, incentive eligibility, target incentive amounts, total cash compensation, and overtime eligibility status are reported.
