AWWA Compensation Survey

Make sound, data-based employee compensation decisions for your utility:

• Compare your utility’s salaries to those of similarly sized utilities by reviewing data by type of ownership or management, population size, or total number of employees.
• Reference salary range minimum, mid-point, and maximum levels for each position as well as 50th percentile, company-weighted average pay, and employee-weighted average pay.
• Compare similar jobs, even if you use different titles.
• Review recent changes to overall staffing levels, workplace policies, and cost-control initiatives.
• Reference segmented data for all participants, water-only participants, as well as water- and wastewater-participants.
