TMS launches 2011 Salary Survey
Launching the TMS Asia-Pacific Australia Travel and Hospitality Industry Salary Survey, general manager Australia/NZ, Sally Matheson said one of the more salient factors she hoped to see unearthed this year would be the impact the current job heavy/candidate light environment is playing on employee wages.
“There can be no doubt we are currently back in a pre-GFC climate where employees seem to have the upper hand when it comes to expecting and demanding better salaries from employers,†she said.
“However it remains to be seen who actually has the upper hand at the moment – employees or employers.
“One thing we do know for sure – the 2011 Salary Report Survey will be conducted in an environment where jobs have once again become more plentiful against a backdrop of a deficiency of readily available candidates,†Matheson said.
“This scenario has immense bearing on remuneration packages especially with employers once again being forced to outbid each other in order to secure the best available talent in an ever-tightening corridor.â€
The primary purpose of the report, as in five previous surveys, is to independently assess the total remuneration packages of staff and management at all levels throughout the country.
As an incentive for those taking part in this year’s survey, recruitment specialist TMS is offering participants the opportunity to win a $250 cash voucher.
How to take part
Participants can complete the online survey accessible via the TMS website, www.tmsap.com.
The survey must be returned no later than October 7, 2011.
Survey results – and the winner of the voucher – are expected to be announced in November.
