Ontario (PRWEB) February 2, 2007 -- PayScale, Inc., a leader in real-time online compensation data for employers and individuals, today announced the availability of PayScale’s compensation data in the Canadian market, making PayScale one of the largest providers of online Canadian compensation data.
PayScale, a significant resource for compensation information, currently services a total of two million unique visitors per month and adds 300,000 to 400,000 new profiles to the system monthly -- more than most research companies collect in an entire year. PayScale ensures that the data is kept current with most profiles being 90 to 180 days old and no data older than a year. While the database reflects a wide range of industries, PayScale shows particular strength in the IT/Tech, Administrative/Support, Engineering, Finance/Accounting, Manufacturing and Healthcare sectors.
“PayScale’s launch in Canada results from the needs of both employers and employees to access up-to-date compensation information and enables better informed hiring and retention decisions,” stated Mike Hayes, vice president of PayScale Business Solutions. “PayScale is pleased to provide this information to the Canadian marketplace to help build more effective compensation models.”
PayScale’s efforts to collect data in volume from Canada began in 2003. Approximately 5,000 new Canada-specific profiles are added to PayScale’s system each month -- more than most information researchers collect in an entire survey. The database reflects the population density of Canada with top cities including Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Montreal and Winnipeg.
“There is truly a War for Talent going on right now,” said Debbie McGrath, founder and chief instigator, HR.com. “PayScale makes it possible for employers to have the information they need to tailor offers that will attract and keep star producers. PayScale’s expansion into Canada is a significant step to provide accurate real-time compensation information for an international market.”
HR.com is a global authority that helps to connect companies with vital knowledge and resources ensuring success on the people side of business.
