Human resource managers and board of directors need data when they set the compensation and benefits for their managers and other workers. The ASU Lodestar Center collects position-level compensation information and reports it back to the field in the form of the Compensation and Benefits Report. We invite nonprofit organizations in Maricopa and Pima counties to participate in our 2010 study. All nonprofits that complete they survey will receive a complimentary copy of the report. It will provide information on salaries and benefits for dozens of position titles, separated by organization size and type. The cost of the report to organizations that do not complete the survey will be $115. To access the online survey, go to http://www.asulodestarcentersurvey.com. To view selected pages from the 2007 report, visit http://asulodestarcentersurvey.com/sample.pdf. We look forward to hearing from you!
