Technical, Para-Professional and Skilled Trades Salary Survey

Illinois’ Technical, Para-Professional and Skilled Trades Salary Survey reports compensation data for 150 benchmark jobs, accompanied by up to four verifying survey sources. ERI Salary Surveys is the sponsor of this 2012 participant and digitized traditional wage, salary and incentive survey available by geographic (state or national) area.

Verifying sources for these technical, para-professional and skilled trades jobs may include ERI's Executive Compensation Assessor and Salary Assessor (both with for-profit data) and ERI's Nonprofit Comparables Assessor & Tax-Exempt Survey databases. (Cost-of-living comparisons, differences, index, and differentials are available via ERI's Relocation Assessor & COL Survey calculator). Job matching is enhanced with PAQ's eDOT Skills and Competencies Project database. Review rates of error, incumbent counts, and identified participant and digitized organizations for defensible data used by courts, the IRS and thousands of subscribers.

Two pages of technical, para-professional and skilled trades information are reported for each of 150 benchmark positions, including job descriptions, total annual direct compensation, survey means, survey medians, percentiles, incentive/variable pay, graphs with data points vs. years of experience, and trended demographic estimates from ERI's Geographic Assessor & Pay Survey. (See ERI newsletters for other compensation issues, salary increase plan surveys, geographic salary statistics, wage differentials, executive compensation studies and salary guides and comparisons. For US nonprofit employer-provided survey data, see ERI Salary Surveys; or for private industry, employer-provided, job focused data, review 17 additional US job family Salary Surveys.)
