PRINT:Print

What does the BLS need from me?

Data! If you are selected for the National Compensation Survey, a BLS field economist will reach out to you. To get started, he or she will ask for the following information:

  1. A current list of jobs at your organization
  2. Individual rates of pay for select jobs
  3. Information about benefits you provide

The field economist will ask you to update any changes in pay and benefits each quarter while your company remains in the National Compensation Survey.

For more information on what questions the field economist will ask, see National Compensation Survey data sources.
