2008 MSEC / CSFCA Wage and Benefit Survey Available
Participation
Increased 29% Over 2007
For the seventh year,
Mountain States Employers Council (MSEC), Inc. was requested by the
Colorado State Fire Chief’s to act as a third party data collector to
conduct a salary and benefits survey for fire protection agencies
throughout Colorado. The survey has been compiled and published and is
ready for distribution.
In addition to
compensation data, this survey also collects data for benefits and
personnel practices in fire departments for four employee categories –
commissioned, non-commissioned, volunteers, and part-time.
This year we had 62
participating agencies. This is a 29% increase over last year’s total
of 48 participants. The increased participation not only increases the
value of the report to end users, but it also serves to bring down the
cost to purchase copies.
