Statistical Factors
The complete reports, available for purchase,
list salary information for the following demographic variables, allowing a more complete
analysis. To present this detailed salary information would require hundreds of pages,
not easily presented here.
The factors affecting national median pay rates include:
- Level of education
- Length of experience
- Region, state, & city
- Type of employer
- Number of employees
- Total budget
- Level of supervisory responsibility
- Annual sales, total assets of financial organizations, and annual gross written premiums
WARNING: The national average pay rates reported in the report summaries may be higher
or lower than the proper pay rate in which you are interested, because a single pay
rate does not describe the effects of all the factors described above.
The information on the free summary data pages on this web site
describe how the factors above impact compensation and should help you adjust the
reported pay rates in very general terms. This adjustment is crucial to determining
the current pay rate for a more specific group of workers, rather than a single national
average.
Obviously, it is unnecessary to caution experienced Human Resources practitioners that
pay levels will vary by geographic location, type and size of employer,
supervisory/managerial responsibility, education and experience, discipline, level of
MIS/dp installation, departmental budget, type of customer, and such other variables as
affect compensation in the various fields of employment discussed herein. However, less-experienced practitioners should bear this in mind when considering the compensation data
reported herein.
