Data Integrity
Over many years, we have collected local HR data from thousands of Southern African organisations. We are proud of the quality of our data, and the integrity and security of our database.
Our data analysts are specialists in their fields, and collectively they have backgrounds in economics, business, econometrics, finance and statistics.
Confidentiality
Our business rests on commitment to confidentiality of data. Thus under no circumstances would any individual information or any company-specific information be disclosed to any other participant.
What is the value of participating in a survey?
Company strategy and company performance are driven by individuals.
Good HR and Remuneration structures and practices – founded on accurate, reliable benchmarks, will engage individuals – encouraging performance that will drive your company’s strategy.
Defensible benchmarks will ensure that you are in a position to meet all governance requirements.
Why use a third party?
Using a third party adds credibility to the survey. Information is more easily obtained from targeted companies when an independent party collects data.
What questions should
we be asking when choosing a salary survey?
- Who are my comparators, for both general skills and those that are critical to the survival of my organisation?
- Am I being offered a comprehensive overview of both fixed and variable remuneration?
- What are the benefit practices of leading organisations in the market?
- What are the latest trends?
- Is there a robust sample of participants?
Why use an audited survey?
An audited survey paints an accurate picture of the current remuneration environment. Our national salary survey, RewardOnline, is audited annually by SNG Grant Thornton and has had a clean audit record since 2011.
How can a survey help us comply with legislation?
A survey will give you access to market data so that you can accurately benchmark the remuneration for the same/similar/equal value jobs against that of other companies, entities or organisations. This is the cornerstone of building your own unique pay scale.

Benchmarks
Compare your pay practices to those in the market by benchmarking all the elements of remuneration (both fixed and variable) for unique roles based on your specific company metrics.
Individual Benchmarks
An individual benchmark is helpful for very specific roles that need to be carefully defined and matched in the market.
An individual benchmark also enables you to request specific information, such as market data for short-term and long-term incentive practices and values.
Executive Benchmarks
Executive benchmarks differ, dependent on the size and complexity of the organisation and the role, and it is important to define these parameters to ensure an accurate benchmark.
