New Data for Hiring Managers in Finance and Accounting, Fashion and Retail, and Scientific Research from Atrium
Co-authored by Caitlin Lowrey of Atrium, a leader in contingent workforce solutions and one of our trusted MSP partners.
In addition to benefits, compensation is one of the most important components of attracting and retaining top talent. As we’ve seen in the last several years, the balance of power has shifted from employers to qualified job seekers. Today, the candidate is in the driver’s seat.
Job seekers know their worth, challenging recruitment and retention practices across industries. In fact, according to Indeed’s Employer Outlook 2018, 42% of employers are concerned that they won’t be able to find the talent they need. And 61% of employers plan to hire more in 2018 than they did in 2017.
That said, it’s crucial to offer competitive salaries while ensuring fiscal responsibility.
Labor cost is the largest percentage of overall spend for an organization. Therefore, companies need to understand and benchmark against comparable external markets (by size, industry, and location). This allows executives to define the costs associated with specific roles. They can then leverage this knowledge to make more informed remuneration decisions.
As a leader in contingent workforce solutions, Atrium translates our data into salary guides to help employers establish market rates. Our salary data is based on the many contract, temp-to-hire, and direct hire job placements we make each year.
