Largest labor report in graphic communications is a critical asset in managing an essential workforce

Dallas, Tex. – Print Industries Affiliates have announced their Wage + Benefits 2020 Survey, the industry’s most comprehensive annual report on labor costs and human resource policies of print-related companies, is open for submissions now through July 31, 2020. From top management to the shipping department, the Wage + Benefits Survey annually captures labor costs and human resource practices from nearly 600 firms and more than 17,000 employees across North America.

“Each year, North American Print Industries Affiliates conduct one of the most powerful surveys in the industry,” commented Teresa Campbell, program director and president of PIA MidAmerica. “2020 has created many challenges for industry employers in managing employee compensation and human resource policies. Our annual Wage + Benefits and Human Resource Policies Survey is a joint effort that provides data critical to print service providers’ ability to recruit, retain, and manage an essential workforce.”

The Wage + Benefit Survey Report is scheduled for release in October 2020 and will offer wages for most industry positions in sixteen categories, segmented by region and company size. The report captures policies for overtime, vacation, PTO, sick-time, health insurance, and also includes job descriptions for more than 200 industry positions. New in 2020, the Wage + Benefits Survey makes previous year’s employment data submissions available automatically upon login to the Wage + Benefits online portal, making the survey process quick and easy. The online Wage + Benefit dashboard will now offer interactive search and report capabilities, and questions related to employee impact of COVID-19 have been added to the 2020 survey.

Print Industries Affiliate member participants receive a copy of the published report at no cost. For more details, locate your local Print Industries Affiliate and access the survey at www.printindustries.org/wages.
