The U.S. Labor Market and Compensation Trends

Interactive Exercise

ERI SALARY AND COST-OF-LIVING DATA

ERI offers databases that are useful for examining the differences in salary rates, wage structures, and the cost of living. For this exercise, we will utilize the Salary Assessor® tool to research pay levels for specific positions in different areas of the U.S. This labor market database provides base salary, incentive, total compensation, and 'relative buying power' cost-of-living data.
