The survey is comprehensive, covering all exempt and non-exempt positions. Information is specific yet presented in a way that maintains strictest confidentiality for all participants. All returned data is shown in “averages”. (A minimum of six (6) participating hotels is required, in order to maintain the integrity & the confidentiality of the data.)

Survey Results and Reports include:

• General Findings Report (rooms, employees, ratios, banquet service charge splits, turnover, perks, incentives, other relevant data collected, etc.)
• Overall Statistical Report for entire group – Non-Exempt Positions

NEW Guidelines for 2026

MID-YEAR WAGE SURVEYS for

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA and ARIZONA

Because of the ever changing wages, and because of high demand, we will begin conducting a “Mid-Year Wage Survey” (excluding benefits) for our Southern California and Arizona survey participants.

ONLY those hotels that participated in the Annual Benefits & Compensation survey earlier in the year, will be invited to participate,

Mid-year wage survey results will NOT be available for purchase to non-participants.

Wage survey results shall be provided by “Zone” only (hourly & exempt summary reports) – Note again please that we must have a minimum of six (6) hotel participants within any given zone as to maintain the confidentiality of the data.
