WERC is pleased to release the 2010 edition of the Warehousing Salaries & Wages Report
The complete report is available in downloadable PDF format at www.werc.org. Members receive the report at no cost; nonmembers pay $150.
Oak Brook , IL — Among the more interesting findings, though not surprising, the exempt warehouse positions earning the highest median total compensation (base salary plus bonus) are the Vice President of Logistics, Vice President of Marketing/Sales and Director of Logistics. The non-exempt warehouse employees earning the highest median hourly wages are Customer Service Representative and Forklift Operator. Shipping/Receiving Clerk was in the second spot.
A more surprising finding is that the average employee turnover among all warehouses surveyed was less 19.6% in this report, which is a decrease of 4.1% since the 2008 report.
Good news is that the 2010 change in all non-exempt median hourly wages was positive, which mirrors the results of the prior survey. The Sales Person did not get good news in that the median total compensation continues to fall with a substantial decrease this year of -31.6% (the same position dropped -7.7% 08 vs. 06).
In providing the data, the report results are broken out in a number of ways to allow users to find data that most closely reflects their own warehouse (size, geographic location, type of business, etc.). Compensation levels among exempt employees are broken out by the number of years served in their current position and by number of employees supervised.
