Members of the Air Conditioning Contractors of America can
see how they stack up with other contractors when it comes to technician
compensation. The ACCA has released its third technician compensation and
benefits survey, which builds on previous versions and adds additional
responses concerning the current economic conditions.
“When
you’re trying to attract and retain the best HVACR talent available to your
company, you need to be armed with information about what’s available in the
marketplace,” says Hilary Atkins, ACCA general counsel and author of the
report. “This report will allow contractors to size up their own offerings
against others in the industry, making for a well-researched strategy for
compensating their technicians.”
The study was created from
data provided by 443 HVACR contractors nationwide. Items covered include annual
base salaries for technicians, benefits for full-time technicians, and
contributions to healthcare plans. Information is also included on bonuses,
commission and overtime.
The data from the survey is also
compared based on factors such as geography, employee numbers and sales
volume.
“Technician Compensation and Benefits, A
Benchmarking Guide for HVACR Contractors” is now available at the ACCA’s online
store. For more information, visitwww.acca.org.
