Wage and Fringe Benefit Survey

The 2006 Wage and Benefit Survey is now available from NADCA. This survey provides a comprehensive look at 13 different job classifications of hourly wage earners, how they are compensated, what benefits they receive and how practices vary by company size and location. In addition, summaries are available regarding insurance rates and absenteeism.

The survey represents 40 companies in the die casting industry nationwide. To provide more flexibility in the analysis of data, the survey comes with a searchable CD-ROM containing all individual company data from 1998 to 2006. Search results may be saved into a spreadsheet program for your own statistical analysis.
