Section 1: Introduction 2017 SHRM-KC Wage/Salary Survey

We are pleased to present the results of the SHRM-KC 2017 Wage/Salary Survey. The format of this report is designed to provide individual users ready access to the data most relevant to their organizations.

This report contains aggregate data for summary purposes. Custom analyses of the data are available to survey participants provided that the demographic database is of sufficient size to protect the integrity of the survey. For more information on these custom analyses, please contact Scott Stoltenberg or John Rankin at Actuarial Consulting Services, Inc.

(402) 614-1844 [email protected]

On behalf of SHRM-KC, and the survey administrator, Actuarial Consulting Services, we would like to extend our sincerest appreciation to the individuals in the participating organizations for their cooperation in providing prompt and accurate salary information.

SHRM-KC would also like to extend a special thanks to Lockton for sponsoring this year’s survey. Lockton’s sponsorship and production assistance went a long way towards making this year’s survey a success for everyone.

Note: The total number of respondents in each section may vary. Although there were 84 total respondents, not all respondents answered every survey question. Therefore, there is some variability in the respondents who reported data by section.

Section 2: Survey Modifications 2017 SHRM-KC Wage/Salary Survey

As always, we continue to learn and improve from the previous year's surveys. This year there were no major modifications to the survey process. We hope that the survey participants continue to find the survey easy to use and we welcome any comments to enhance the overall survey process.

This year the format of the survey results has not changed. Providing a consistent look and feel throughout the survey from year to year is intended to enhance the survey's ease of use.

As new and emerging topics come into our field every year, it is important that we continue to stay current as to what information human resources professionals seek. If you have any suggestions for new and emerging topics please provide your feedback in the comment sections.

Please note the Responses are labeled to match the Question labels from the survey. Therefore, a response may appear to be "missing" when there was just no corresponding question in the survey with that label. For example, Section 4 starts with A2 since question A1 is not summarized.
