AIRPORT BUSINESS is completing its first salary survey and
we're bringing this information to you.
Overall initial results show many are
happy to work in airport administration.
And at the same time, depending on your
position, many of you feel undercompensated
compared to your peers.
But not all positions and locations pay the
same, so it's easy to see why you'd feel this
way. That's why we're bringing this valuable
tool to your computer today. By providing
a benchmark for leadership, we're giving
airport managers resources they need to close
their talent gap and find out what they can
do to bring an edge to their hiring efforts.
And we want you to know your market
worth and what it will take to advance
your career.

overview of salary ranges and
benefits, allowing managers to benchmark
their employees' compensation against peers

industry will help managers create comKnow

productivity and performance. In today's job
market, airport managers need to be aware of
employee concerns, including salary expectations
and benefits. Armed with the insights
from the survey, managers can proactively
address these concerns, fostering a more positive
work environment and boosting morale.

data from the Airport Business Salary Survey,
airport managers can ensure that their compensation
policies are fair, consistent, and
aligned with the industry's best practices.
