NGOs Salary Survey 2005

Introduction

The introduction of Lump Sum Grant has transformed the resources management of the Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs), especially in human resources management. NGOs are given the freedom to manage their staff structure, staff-mix and the level of compensation and benefits under the new funding mode.

NGOs of the welfare sector are entering into the post-TOG period. With regard to the expenditure in salary and benefits, it usually carries over 70% of the total expenses of an organization.  To facilitate NGOs in determining the levels of salary and benefits with flexibility to meet their organizational requirements, NGOs need more information from the comparable sectors to set a fair and reasonable salary system for their own organizations.

The Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS) commissioned Hong Kong Institute of Human Resource Management Ltd (HKIHRM) to conduct the HKCSS Salary Survey 2005-2006 among the Agency Members of HKCSS. The Report intends to provide participating Agency Members more comprehensive and updated sector-wide information on the salary and benefits offered by the members to their staff.  The Survey this year include the following new items:

1. more job types with clear job responsibilities;
2. analysis in newly recruited social workers;
3. more benefits data;
4. further changes in compensation and benefits.

The results of the Survey aim to assist the participating Agency Members in positioning their remuneration strategies to recruit and reward employees and revamping their compensation and benefits practices to meet with the current challenges in the operating environment of NGOs.
