Study Focus

The 2024 study will provide participating members with a deep understanding of compensation and benefits across the HPN network of peer organizations.

We have two big goals in this work…�

  • Support members with data they can leverage to refine/improve their compensation + benefits offerings to staff (and hopefully staff retention)�
  • Analyze trends for HPN members related to pay equity, housing affordability, and access to a living wage

Areas of Focus

Salary ranges by role

Pay equity and wage gaps (race + gender)

Benefits - health, retirement, time off, etc

Pay practices and policies

Current pay vs. local housing affordability

Who else will be in the study (hint - we need you!)

We are aiming for 40-60 participating HPN member orgs in the study, representing 8,000-10,000 employees across our network.

We anticipate offering “sub analysis” by organization type and region.

Cohort Analysis

Cohort Analysis Questions for 2024:

  • Holding other factors constant, do we observe relationships between employee pay and race or gender identity? �
  • Do HPN members pay a living wage to all staff? If not, do we observe trends by region, org type, size, or other factors?�
  • Do HPN members pay wages that are aligned with housing affordability thresholds by region? If not, what trends do we observe?

Note! No members will be individually identified in the final report, nor will any organization-specific findings be shared back with orgs unless requested by organizational leaders.
