2005 Nonprofit Salary & Benefits Survey

“As a new nonprofit in Central Oregon, we have found the survey to be very helpful in setting up salary ranges for new positions, choosing benefit packages and setting up payroll practices. We could decide on a compensation strategy based on what other organizations are doing in our area and put regional figures into a larger context using statewide statistics.”
