WorldatWork 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey 1
Structure of the Report
This report contains five sections. Section one presents the highlights and key findings of the U.S. data.Section two contains detailed U.S. data, broken out into industry and sub-industry groups (see Industry Classifications on page 4) and regional categories. The regional categories for the United States are shown onthe map below (or see the list on page 3). Section three presents highlights and key findings of the Canadiandata. Section four contains detailed Canadian data broken out by region (listed on page 3) and industrygroups, as allowed by sample size. (See page 5 for Canadian industry listings.) Finally, section five includes a list of participating organizations, provides definitions for terms used in the survey, and contains a copy ofthe questionnaire for reference.
U.S. data is broken into four employment categories, as defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA):
• Nonexempt Hourly Nonunion• Nonexempt Salaried• Exempt Salaried• Officers/Executives
Canadian data also is broken into four employment categories:
• Nonmanagement Hourly Nonunion• Nonmanagement Salaried• Management Salaried• Officers/Executives
Methodology
On April 1, 2003, all U.S. and Canadian WorldatWork members received notification (by both postal mailand electronic mail) of the opening of the 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey. A total of 20,636 U.S. members and1,923 Canadian members were invited to participate in the online, electronic data collection effort. When thesurvey officially closed on May 1, 2003, 3,272 responses had been received. Submissions from organizationswith fewer than 10 employees and multiple submissions from the same organization were eliminated from thedata set. The final data contains 3,129 responses, analyzed by statistical software. A full list of organizations that responded to this year’s survey can be found beginning on page 75.
To ensure the anonymity of individual organizations, WorldatWork has chosen to not publish or otherwise make available data points in which fewer than five survey participants responded.

Industry Data
Industry tables for both U.S. and Canadian data are based on participant self-reported codes using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The two- and three-digit codes selected for use with the 2003-04 data set are presented in Figure A. All major industry codes (two-digit) were used regardlessof total sample size, and some industry subsets (three-digit) were broken out because of sufficiently large sample size. This report follows the NAICS codes, with one exception: Telecommunications (code 517), whichresides as a subset of Information (code 51) in the NAICS. Due to the large sample size (n=87 U.S. and n=19Canada) and for ease of reader use, Telecommunications was taken out of the major group Information, andplaced into its own category for the 2003-04 report.
The main industry categories report data for all respondents within the category, regardless of whether theyalso are reported in a subcategory. Industry subcategories that did not have an adequate response are not brokenout in the report. Therefore, the sum of all subcategories may not equal the main industry category’s sample size.
The following is a list of industry categories reported. Full definitions for these industry categories can befound at the NAICS Web site (www.census.gov/epcd/naics02/).

WorldatWork 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey 7
Executive Summary of Trends
United States
The WorldatWork 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey marked several important milestones. For this 30th annualreport, a record-breaking response was received. At the same time, salary budget estimates hit all-time lows.
Actual salary increase budgets for 2003 are falling short of the levels projected a year ago. Participatingorganizations are reporting an actual average salary budget increase of 3.5 percent in 2003, 0.6 percent lowerthan the 4.1 percent projected in April 2002. The projected figures for 2004 salary budgets look slightly betterthan the 2003 actual figures, at 3.7 percent.
In addition to modest salary increase budgets for 2004, survey respondents also indicated that feweremployees might receive pay raises. Nationally, about 83 percent of employees are likely to receive a basesalary increase in 2003, down from 85 percent in 2002, and 94 percent who received an increase in 2001.Additionally, organizations are extending the time between increases. Workers of all ranks today may go up to two years between non-promotional salary increases, according to this year’s data.
Salary structure increases in 2003 will average 2.1 percent, with more than one-third reporting no increase(0 percent) in their salary structure. While a 2.1-percent increase is still on the positive side, the figure is lessthan projected a year ago, and sets another historical survey low. Projections for 2004 indicate the salary structures may increase modestly to 2.3 percent.
For the third consecutive year, the use of variable pay is on the rise. Three-quarters of all organizations inthe survey now are reporting some sort of variable pay program. The actual paid incentive for 2002 was lessthan the amount budgeted, but nonetheless represented a slight increase. Average amounts of variable payactually paid out ranged from 5.7 percent of base pay for hourly workers, to 11.7 percent for management and 29.8 percent for executives. The outlook for variable pay in the year ahead looks very similar.
Stock-based compensation programs continue to be popular despite the volatility in equity markets in recent years. Seventy percent of all organizations that have stock in this year’s survey report using it in stock-based compensation programs. In 2002, stock options were far and away the most popular program used by organizations, followed by restricted stock. Eighty-four percent of companies with stock programsreport offering stock options to executives in 2002. Stock options also were offered to managers in 63 percentof organizations, and even to hourly workers in 15 percent of organizations.
The 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey reports data for more than 15.8 million U.S. employees from the organizations participating in the survey. Collected in April of 2003, this data represents a broad range ofindustries, distributed fairly evenly across four regions of the United States.

Salary Budget Increases
For the second consecutive year, actual salary increase budgets are lower than figures projected the prior year.Excluding promotional increases (see page 15), 2003 actual salary budgets are lower by nearly one-half of 1 percent than the 2003 projections made a year ago across all employment categories. The good news is that,although projections for 2004 are lower than projections were a year ago for 2003, the 2004 projections areone- to two-tenths of a percent higher than 2003 actual budgets, indicating some optimism going forward.(See Figure 1.)
For the first time in the history of this report, both the actual 2003 and the projected 2004 average officer/executive salary increase budgets have come in at less than 4 percent. Just over 11 percent of all survey respon-dents ended up budgeting no salary increase (0 percent) for their officer/executive positions for 2003.
All other categories of employee groups also are in record low territory in terms of 2003 salary budgetincreases. Nearly six percent (5.7 percent) of respondents have budgeted an increase of 0 percent for theirnonexempt hourly nonunion employees for 2003, while 6.9 percent report no budget increase (0 percent) for nonexempt salaried employees, and 6.8 percent have no increase (0 percent) scheduled for exempt-levelemployees this year.
For 2003, nearly 40 percent of respondents report less than a 3 percent total increase for both nonexempthourly nonunion employees and nonexempt salaried employees. One-third of respondents report less than 3 percent for exempt salaried employees this year, 20 percent report an actual increase between 3 percent and4 percent, and less than 16 percent report an increase between 4 percent and 5 percent.

The 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey is the 30th annual WorldatWork salary budget survey, and marks the lowesttotal salary budget increase levels in the history of the survey. It also should be noted that inflation (measuredby Consumer Price Index, or CPI) is at some of the lowest levels in many years. Figure 2 shows the 30-year his-tory of salary budget trends, and Figure 11 on page 14 puts these trends into context with the CPI.

.S. Figure 3 indicates that U.S. regional salary budget trends on an actual basis are generally following the
national trend downward, with some minor variations within certain employment groups and certainregions. The exempt salaried employee group is the only group that is tracking both on a national level andregion-by-region. Projected budget numbers for 2004 show signs of modest optimism across all regions.

Figure 4 condenses the 44 specific industry groupings reported in Figure A (page 2) into seven major groupings historically reported by the WorldatWork Salary Budget Survey. The data shown in Figure 4 represents total salary increases for U.S. exempt employees.
Three of the major industry groupings, Public Administration, Transportation/Utility and Wholesale,show the most drastic decline in budget increases through the three-year period of 2001 to 2003. The Public Administration sector seemed immune to the downward budgeting until this year when actual 2003 increases are down 1.3 percentage points over 2002 actual budgets.

Percent of Employees Receiving a Base Salary Increase
Figure 5 reveals that, on average, participating firms will give a base salary increase to 83 percent of allemployees in 2003, slightly lower than last year’s reported figure of 85 percent. While the majority of surveyparticipants indicated that this percentage is similar to last year, more than 15 percent across all employeegroups reported that the percent of employees who will be receiving a base increase this year is smaller thanthe percent of employees who received an increase in 2002.

Salary structures refer to a schedule of formal salary ranges with established minimums and maximums.Organizations frequently have a control point (often the midpoint) within each salary range. As a general rule,the numbers displayed below refer to the percentage increase in the salary structure pay line encompassing all salary range control points.
Figure 7 shows that 2003 actual salary structure increases are not only down from the projections made a year ago, but mark record lows across all employment categories. A significant number of organizations(including 28 percent in nonexempt salaried and 37 percent in officers/executives) reported 0 increase to theirstructure in 2003. (See Figure 8.) The average structure adjustments kept nearly identical pace with the U.S.CPI, which increased 2.2 percent in the 12 months ending April 2003. Projections for 2004 suggest a slightincrease in structure movement compared to actual 2003. (See Figure 9 on page 13.)
Noteworthy among major industry groups is the Accommodation and Food Services industry, which reportedsignificantly higher structure adjustments (2.7 percent to 3.4 percent) for 2003. The Air Transportation industryreported very low structure adjustments (0.9 percent to 1.4 percent).

Note: Figure 11 table and corresponding graph shows the relationship between salary budget increases, salary structure increases and the CPI for eachemployment category in the period 1992 to 2004. Historically, salary budget increases are greater than structure increases by 1.1% to 1.9% andthe CPI floats around the structure increase. Increases to both salary budgets and salary structures have been on the decline since 2001 but areprojected to increase slightly in 2004.

U.S.Promotional Increases
While still not a common practice, an increasing percentage of organizations are setting up separate budget poolsfor promotions. (See Figure 12) Twenty-nine percent of organizations report promotional increases as a separatebudget item, an increase of 8 percent over 2002.
FIGURE 12: PROMOTIONAL INCREASE BUDGETS
* The 2003-04 survey asked participants to provide 2002 actual data in retrospect, instead of forward-looking estimates for end-of-year data at the time ofsurvey administration in April, as was the case in previous years. This change should provide more accurate and reliable data going forward.
Percentage of Employees Receiving Promotional Increases 9.3% 7.0% 7.0% 9.0% 9.4% 10.4% 8.4%

Percentage of Promoted Employee’s Base Salary - - - - 7.7% 7.7% 7.3%
(a) Mean (b) Median
Respondents reported that 8.4 percent of employees received a promotional increase in 2002, lower than the number of internal promotions as in 2000 and 2001 (9.4 percent and 10.4 percent respectively in the United States). (See Figure 13.)
The median budgeted percent of total base salaries was 1 percent in 2002, with 0.5 percent and 1 percentbeing the most common responses reported.
The average salary increase for a promotion (as a percent of promoted employee’s prior base salary) wentdown for the first time in the survey, by 0.4 percent, to 7.3 percent in 2002.
It should be noted that for the 2003-04 survey, WorldatWork changed several of the questions regarding promotional increases to improve both the quality and usability of information. Instead of asking participants inApril to, in effect, estimate their promotional data through the end of the year (as Salary Budget Survey questionsin previous years did), the new questions asked participants to provide actual data for the prior year. Because of this change in methodology, caution should be used when comparing this year’s 2002 data to figures from previous years.

.S. Variable Pay, Incentives and Bonuses
Variable pay is the amount established by management as a nondiscretionary percentage of payroll to begranted for performance-based, lump-sum cash rewards during the year. Included in this calculation are individual incentive awards, special recognition awards, unit/strategic business unit (SBU) awards and organization-wide awards.
The use of variable pay, incentives and bonuses continues to grow. In 2003, 75 percent of organizationsare using at least one form of variable pay, including cash incentives and/or bonuses, a 7-percent increaseover 2002. (See Figure 14.)
FIGURE 14: USE OF VARIABLE PAY

Percent of organizations using variable pay 66% 68% 75%
Percent not using variable pay 34% 32% 25%
2001 2002 2003
Of those organizations that use variable pay, more than half provide individual incentive or recognitionawards and/or organization-wide plans. Figure 15 shows the relatively even distribution of programs used bythe participating organizations.

U.S.
In 2002, more than three-quarters of participating organizations’ employees were eligible for variable pay,ranging from 79 percent of exempt salaried employees to 95 percent of officers and executives. Of the eligibleemployees, officers and executives were most likely to actually receive a variable pay award, with 82.4 percentof employees in this category receiving variable pay in 2002.
The percentage of variable pay estimated to be actually awarded in 2003 falls below budgeted targets, with theexception of the nonexempt salaried group (which may come in only slightly higher than budgeted, by 0.2 percent).
Projections for variable pay in 2004 are lower for all employee groups in comparison to 2002 projectionsfor 2003. Projected 2004 budgets range from 5 percent for nonexempt hourly nonunion employees, to officersand executives at more than 32 percent. Nonexempt salaried employees may see an additional 1 percent targetin 2004. (See Figure 16.)

Stock/Equity-Based Compensation Programs
Stock-based incentive programs continue to be popular in the United States, with 70 percent of organizationswith stock reporting that they use stock in compensation.
Stock options were by far the most popular stock-based program, followed by restricted stock. Generally, a higher percentage of executives and officers participate in stock option programs compared to otheremployees. While more than eight in 10 (84 percent) organizations with either actual stock or stock-likevehicles report offering stock options to executives, options are also offered to managers in 63 percent oforganizations, and to hourly workers in 15 percent of companies. (See Figure 18.)

Seventy-four percent of self-reported publicly traded companies have stock-based incentive programs forvariable compensation purposes in 2003. It should be noted that the 2003-04 survey made a slight change tofocus only on stock used for variable compensation purposes and eliminated questions about stock used inbenefits and for other purposes (e.g. company stock in offered through a 401[k] defined contribution plan).(See Figure 19.)

Attraction and Retention Practices Despite higher unemployment rates and a generally softer labor market, attraction and retention of employeescontinues to be a top concern for many organizations in 2003. More than 90 percent of organizations areusing some form of incentive to attract and retain employees.
Referral bonuses and sign-on bonuses top the list of methods used to attract and retain employees (63 percentand 62 percent, respectively) and more than half of respondents (53 percent) report using market adjustmentsas a retention tool. Stock grant programs, large merit budgets and paid sabbaticals are the least used programsfor attraction and retention, all used by less than 10 percent of responding organizations. (See Figure 21.)

Executive Summary of Trends
58 WorldatWork 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey
Salary Budget Increases
Canadian 2003 actual salary budget increases are coming in close to 2002 budget increases, and are not far offfrom projections made a year ago. Officers/executives are coming in slightly higher than the other employeecategories, in both projection and actual terms.
Projections for 2004 indicate some upward optimism for all employee categories. If projections hold true,salary budgets for officers/executives will lead all other employment categories in 2004 by about three-tenths of a percent.
The number of months between salary increases was projected to shorten across all employment categoriesin 2002. According to this year’s data, however, the projection did not materialize; all employee categoriesexcept nonmanagement hourly nonunion experienced a widening in the number of months between increases.Projections for 2004 anticipate optimism, or a shortening of the time between increases. (See Figure C1.)

Salary Structure Adjustments
In 2003, salary structures in Canada are coming in lower across the board compared to the projections made for 2003 just one year ago. For officers/executives, the projection was off by one-tenth of 1 percent, but nonmanagement hourly nonunion structures were misjudged by four-tenths of a percent. The 2004 projections indicate mild optimism going forward. (See Figures C7 and C8.)

64 WorldatWork 2003-04 Salary Budget Survey
Promotional Increases
Figure C10 indicates that that 7.2 percent of employees received a promotional increase in 2002, substantiallylower than the number of internal promotions reported in 2001 and 2000 (10.5 percent and 8.5 percent,respectively).
The median budgeted percent of total base salaries was 1 percent in 2002, with 0.5 percent and 1 percentbeing the most comment responses reported.
The average salary increase for a promotion (as a percent of promoted employee’s prior base salary)increased to 7.7 percent, from 7.4 percent in 2001.
It should be noted that WorldatWork changed some of the questions regarding promotional increases to improve both the quality and usability of information in the Salary Budget Survey. Instead of asking participants in April to, in effect, estimate their promotional data through the end of the year (as the previousquestions did), the new questions ask participants to provide actual data for the year prior. Caution shouldbe used when comparing this year’s 2002 data to figures from previous years because of this change inmethodology.

* The 2003-04 survey asked participants to provide 2002 actual data in retrospect, instead of forward-looking estimates for end-of-year data at thetime of survey administration in April, as was the case in previous years. This change should provide more accurate and reliable data going forward.
