WHAT’S HAPPENING TO HR SALARIES?
Following the trend in 2014-15, HR salaries in the sector appear to have increased slightly on average this year, with the biggest increases at Director (12%) and Head of level (7%). 64% of respondents reported that pay remained the same last year, with 28% of respondents receiving a small increase in salary. The number of people receiving a small pay rise has dropped by 10% since 2015. People feel the little change is due to ‘budget constraints’, ‘financial pressures in the 3rd sector’, ‘interest rates and market is so flat’. 2% of respondents saw a big increase in their salary. Many individuals feel pay is under scrutiny following the recent media storm on charities and that charities are lagging behind in HR pay, compared with other sectors.
