SLASSCOM-PwC Salary and Benefit Survey 2012 published

In keeping with the mission to continually enhance the professional management and HR practices of the IT/BPO and knowledge services industry, SLASSCOM together with PwC (PricewaterhouseCoopers) published the second annual Salary and Benefit Survey. The survey report provides information on emerging HR trends and challenges in Sri Lanka. The report covers a wider spectrum of jobs and benefits comparison to provide a comprehensive study on the industry. In addition the study offers a broad industry perspective, with data from substantial number of small, medium and large organizations in the IT, ITES, BPO and KPO sectors.

The study results provide statistical information, including market mean, median and percentiles on surveyed job positions under each and every job family of both the sectors.

Thus providing a platform for the reader to study the market for compensation and benefits and take decisions in a cost effective and relevant manner.

Board Member and Head of HR Forum - SLASSCOM, Anuradha Tennakoon elaborated, “Following the successful publication of the 2011 survey report to address the need of a common remuneration and benefits benchmarking tool for the IT, ITES,BPO and KPO industry sectors in Sri Lanka, we are encouraged to see the increased participation of companies in the 2012 survey.

This year’s report includes some insights into the general human resource trends emerging in the sector. Without any hesitation, I can say perhaps this may be the most comprehensive Salary and Benefits Study report produced for the IT/BPO and KPO sector by anyone to date.

The report gives an in-depth analysis of salary and various benefits provided by the industry for different categories of employees.
