2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
Executive Summary
As part of its mandate to support Canadian nonprofits by providing information and resources,
CharityVillage® contracted the Association Resource Centre to carry out its second annual
Canadian Nonprofit Sector Compensation & Benefits Study in March 2012. The inaugural
study, carried out in 2011, was the first of its kind to focus exclusively on Canadian charities and
nonprofits.
An online survey that collected compensation and profile data was conducted in March and
April 2012. In all, 1,398 organizations participated, reporting compensation data on over 15,000
nonprofit employees across Canada at six different staff levels. This represents a 17% increase
in respondents over the 2011 study.
The following is a summary of key highlights from the 2012 study:
Cash compensation growth slow and steady: There were few surprises where cash
compensation is concerned in the 2012 study. Average compensation growth for the twelve
months preceding the study sat at or just below inflation, ranging from 1% to 2.2% depending
on staff level. This trend is expected to continue for the time being, with survey participants
predicting similar compensation growth over the next year. The individual increases at the top
three management levels come despite a mild down tick in sector averages.
Seniority and employment status the keys to higher-paying jobs: For the most part,
seniority continues to have a significant impact on cash compensation levels. At the higher
management levels, full-time employees also earn more than part-time or contract workers.
Toronto and Ottawa still top for nonprofit compensation: Average compensation tends to
increase with the size of the community in which employees are located. The highest average
compensation regions continue to be the Greater Toronto Area and Ottawa, although Alberta
is not far behind, particularly when it comes to Chief Executives.
High-paying nonprofits share certain characteristics: With some exceptions, the highestpaying Canadian nonprofits are organizations that do not classify themselves as charities. They
are often national in scope and are large both in terms of revenue and the number of
employees (although employees at the lower staff levels of large organizations do not benefit
to the same extent as those in management). For the most part, the top compensators are not
unionized. They are also more likely to be affiliated organizations (organizations that operate
under the same umbrella name or brand but are run as separate nonprofit organizations).
Health, community and arts & culture organizations offer high pay: On average, healthrelated organizations and, to a lesser extent, community benefit organizations and arts &
culture organizations offer higher compensation than the rest of the sector. In addition, the
highest-paying nonprofits often have a primary role that involves education/training,
community programs & services, or arts/cultural programming and community social services.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
The glass ceiling still exists in the nonprofit sector — or does it? At first glance, the results
would suggest that men continue to earn more on average than women at most staff levels,
aside from management/supervisory staff and support staff. However, deeper analysis shows
the gender gap is a function of the size of organization: men are more likely to work in bigger
organizations, which typically pay better.
Age and other experience continue to play a role: Salaries grow most rapidly during the early
stages of employees’ careers before levelling out near retirement. Higher education and
certifications also translate to higher compensation. Other experience factors, such as
discipline-specific experience, experience in the sector, seniority and time spent in current role
are also directly tied to compensation.
Performance incentive plans continue to be the exception: Just 7% of respondents reported
that their organization provides a formal performance incentive plan, which is unchanged from
2011. Formal incentive plans continue to be most prevalent at the management levels.
Organizational performance is used most heavily to measure performance among Chief
Executives and senior executives. In contrast, individual performance measures are common to
all staff levels.
Retirement benefits common, less so for Chief Executives: Retirement benefits are
frequently offered by nonprofit employers, although Chief Executives are significantly less
likely to receive the benefit than others. RRSP plans continue to be the most common form of
retirement benefit.
Nonprofits continue to invest in staff education: The vast majority of employees across all
staff levels receive some sort of education benefit from their organization, with the dollar value
of the benefit increasing by staff level. In contrast, less than 40% of employees enjoy
automobile benefits.
Perks common in nonprofit sector: Although they don’t add significant monetary value to the
compensation package, perks are common in the nonprofit sector. Employer-paid conference
registration and travel costs continue to be among the top five perks for all nonprofit
employees surveyed. Tuition reimbursement/assistance and employer-paid cell phones or
smart phones for work purposes were also common perks across most staff levels.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
I. Introduction
STUDY BACKGROUND
As a leader and resource provider to Canadian nonprofits, CharityVillage® seeks to provide
information that can be used to continually improve the nonprofit sector. The 2012 edition of
the Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey is the second in the annual series that began in
2011. This robust compensation study is the only one to focus exclusively on charities and
other nonprofits in Canada. The study was carried out by the Association Resource Centre, a
full-service management consulting firm that specializes in providing market research and
strategic planning for not-for-profit organizations.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
In March 2012, invitations to an online compensation survey were sent to roughly 13,750
potential respondents, including CharityVillage® website subscribers and respondents to the
2011 survey. An open link to the survey was also made available through several social media
channels and CharityVillage’s® website. The survey collected compensation and profile data
on six staff levels. By the cut-off date, a total of 1,398 completed surveys had been received.
This represents a 17% increase over the number of respondents in the 2011 study.
Each survey allowed respondents to provide information on compensation, benefits and
demographics for an unlimited number of individual staff members. The survey covered fulltime, permanent part-time, casual part-time and contract positions. If a position was not fulltime, compensation data was adjusted to a full-time equivalent based on the number of hours
worked. Respondents could also report data for groups of employees for different job levels or
titles, so the number of employees represented in the survey is not directly related to the
number of survey responses. Key response statistics are as follows:
 Number of participating organizations: 1,398
 Number of positions reported: 5,994
 Number of employees represented: 15,051
The following table presents the position/level definitions that were provided to respondents in
the survey. It also shows the number of positions reported and employees represented at each
level.
It should be noted that the definition for level 5 staff was altered slightly in this year’s study to
more accurately reflect those at that level. Specifically, the definition was refined to include
functional staff below the management level.

organization. It is usually held by one individual who is broadly
responsible for overseeing the entire operation of the organization.
This position usually reports to a board of directors.
777
777
Level 2: Senior Common Job Titles: Senior Vice President, Vice President, Chief
Executives
Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Manager of
Operations This position is usually held by one individual who is the
“second-in-command” in the organization. The role typically
involves supporting the Chief Executive in most areas. This person
would step into the position of Chief Executive, either permanently
or temporarily, should that person need to be replaced. This
position usually reports directly to the Chief Executive; however, in
some cases there may be some level of reporting relationship from
this position to the board of directors.
241
275
Level 3: Senior Common Job Titles: Functional Vice President (e.g., VP
Management Marketing, VP Finance, etc.), Senior Manager, Director
Employees in this area are usually responsible for overseeing a
specific area within the organization and ensuring strategic goals
within this area are met. The area can either be functional
(marketing, fundraising, government relations, etc.) or divisional
(disaster relief, education, youth services, etc.). These individuals
report to the senior executive and/or directly to the Chief
Executive. Depending on factors such as the size of the
organization and the complexity of their role, they may or may not
have employees reporting to them.

STUDY LIMITATIONS
When interpreting the results of this study, it is important to keep in mind the following
limitations:
 Compensation figures are as of April 2012.
 Results are based on survey responses and are only as accurate as the data provided by
survey participants.
 This survey was conducted using a list of subscribers to the CharityVillage® website and
accordingly is not a random sample. Because the survey was not random, the results
may or may not be an accurate representation of the total nonprofit sector in Canada.
Accordingly, the findings in this report reflect the views of only those nonprofit
organizations that participated.
 While overall results are quite robust, many of the subgroups have small sample sizes.
Results for these groups should be interpreted with caution.

II. Cash Compensation in the Nonprofit Sector
While there are many components that make up the overall compensation package, by far the
most common benchmark is cash compensation. Unlike other components of the overall
compensation package, the value of cash compensation is easy to compare from one
employee to another. Subsequently, cash compensation tends to be the first thing people look
at and is the strongest indicator of perceived value for most paid positions. The nonprofit
sector is no exception. This chapter begins by examining this benchmark by job level and then
discusses recent changes in cash compensation. It concludes with a look at regional
differences.
Cash Compensation Definitions
Base Compensation: This is the annual base amount of cash compensation an
individual receives prior to any bonuses or incentives. To allow for comparisons,
part-time and contract wages/fees have been converted to annualized equivalents
based on 40 hours per week for 50 weeks per year (assuming 10 statutory holidays).
Bonus or Additional Compensation: This is cash compensation beyond the regular
paycheque. This compensation is typically received as a bonus or incentive and may
or may not be part of a formal incentive plan.
Hourly Rate: This represents the hourly equivalent to base compensation. This rate
can be used to calculate benchmark compensation for part-time positions. Where
annual values were provided, hourly rates were calculated using the standard hours
upon which the annual rate is based over a 50-week year (assuming 10 statutory
holidays). The hourly rate does not include any bonus or incentive pay.
Bonus Percent: This is the amount of additional compensation expressed as a
percentage of base compensation. Values labelled “among all staff” represent the
average for the sector, while those labelled “among those who receive bonus pay”
exclude those who receive no bonus or additional compensation.
Sample Size: Shown as “N=” throughout the report, this is the number of cases the
result is based upon. As noted in the following paragraph, some respondents
provided data about more than one employee.
Number of Employees Represented: As mentioned in the introduction,
respondents were able to provide compensation information for more than one
employee in a single survey. In some cases, they provided average compensation
for a group of employees. The number of employees represents the total number
of people upon which the average is based.

Chapter Summary
 As was the case in the 2011 study, average cash compensation increases with seniority.
The one exception is that average cash compensation for senior executives (level 2) is
slightly higher than for Chief Executives (level 1).
 Looking at the sector as a whole, average compensation for the top three management
levels is down modestly in 2012, while increases were seen for management/supervisory
staff (level 4) and support staff (level 6).
 The average increase in individual compensation over the 12 months preceding the
survey ranged from 1% to 2.2% depending on staff level, which is at or just below the
inflation mark. According to the predictions of survey participants, similar levels of
increases are expected over the next twelve months.
 As seen in the 2011 study, an employee’s status as full-time, part-time or contract
continues to have a significant impact on pay. This is particularly true at the top two
management levels, where contract or full-time executives tend to fare better than
permanent part-time employees. The discrepancy decreases at the remaining staff
levels, although casual and contract senior managers earn 14% more than their full-time
colleagues.
 Ottawa and the Greater Toronto Area continue to be at or near the top of range for
nonprofit compensation in Canada, although Alberta is not far behind, particularly for
Chief Executives. On the flip side, the “Rest of Ontario” region tends to be among the
lowest-paying at all staff levels.
 Average compensation at all levels increases with the size of the community in which
employees are located.

ANNUAL CASH COMPENSATION
Exhibit 2-1 presents a summary of annual cash compensation and bonus ratios for all six staff
levels. Not surprisingly, the results show that average cash compensation increases with the
seniority of the position. Consistent with the 2011 study, the one exception to this rule is that
average senior executive cash compensation is slightly higher than the average for Chief
Executives. This can be attributed to the fact that while almost all organizations have a Chief
Executive, most are not large enough to have a senior executive position. Subsequently, this
position is more likely to exist in larger organizations, where pay at all levels tends to be higher.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
In 2012, Chief Executives in the nonprofit sector receive average total cash compensation of
almost $86,500: $85,015 in base compensation and $1,446 in bonus or additional cash
compensation. On the whole, the average bonus or additional cash compensation amounts to
a miniscule 1.4% of base compensation. However, only 20% of Chief Executives receive any
bonus or additional compensation at all. If we focus just on this select group, the average
bonus or additional compensation is 7.2%. On an hourly basis, Chief Executives in the nonprofit
sector earn an average of almost $44 per hour in base compensation. *Note: The hourly rate
can be used to determine or compare compensation for those working part-time or on contract.
At 1.3%, the average bonus or additional compensation for senior executives is comparable to
that of the Chief Executive, though the average among the 21% receiving bonus or additional
compensation is somewhat lower at 6.4%.
Below the senior executive level, the average bonus or additional compensation is quite a bit
lower, ranging from only 0.2% to 0.7% (support staff and senior management, respectively) of
base compensation for the sector and from 3.1% to 5.3 among the select group receiving bonus
or additional compensation.
Exhibit 2-2 presents the quartile ranges for each staff level for both annualized compensation
and hourly compensation. By dividing respondents into four equal groups (i.e., 25% in each
group), quartiles provide an understanding of the distribution of compensation. Note that the
first and fourth quartiles include the extreme lows and highs within the sector.

YEAR-OVER-YEAR COMPENSATION GROWTH
Exhibit 2-3 compares total cash compensation for 2011 and 2012. Average compensation at
the top three management levels in the nonprofit sector has decreased slightly in 2012. The
largest decline was experienced at the Chief Executive level (-2.6%) followed by level 2 (-2.0%)
and level 3 (-1.5%). Conversely, average support staff compensation increased by 5.1% while
average management/supervisory staff increased by 1.3%. Average compensation for
functional and program staff (level 5) held steady.

It is important to note that declining average compensation for sector managers does not
necessarily mean that employees are taking pay cuts. As people move from one job to another,
as they leave or enter the sector, or as positions are created or deleted, the average pay
received by workers across the sector can shift. For example, if someone is promoted from
level 3 to level 1, instead of being paid at the upper end of the level 3 pay scale, she is now likely
to be paid at the lower end of the level 1 pay scale. So although the individual received a pay
raise, her promotion has the effect of decreasing the average compensation at both level 3 and
level 1.

CHANGES IN CASH COMPENSATION
With Canada’s economy still in recovery and with current inflation levels still low, it is no
surprise that average compensation increases over the past twelve months have been quite
small, ranging from 1% to 2.2% depending on staff level (see Exhibit 2-4). This increase is at or
just below the annual inflation mark, which was 2.3% at the end of 2011 and 2.0% as of April
2012.1 While not shown in the exhibit, average increases tended to be somewhat higher in
Alberta than in other regions, as was the case in 2011.
Increases were most likely to be seen among employees at level 6 (64%), level 4 (60%) and
level 3 (59%). Regardless of the level, when increases were received, the majority were less
than 3%. Those at the management levels were somewhat more likely to see increases above
this level.
Exhibit 2-4 also compares the average change in compensation with the change that 2011
survey respondents had predicted for the 12 months following that study. These predictions
proved to be remarkably accurate, with the largest discrepancy occurring at level 5.

The picture is not expected to change anytime soon. As seen in Exhibit 2-5, the average
anticipated increases for the next twelve months are comparable to the increases received in
the preceding twelve months. According to respondents, level 3 and 4 employees are the most
likely to receive an increase.

CASH COMPENSATION BY EMPLOYMENT STATUS
An employee’s status as full-time, part-time or contract has a significant impact on
compensation (see Exhibit 2-6), as was also the case in the 2011 survey. Compared to their
permanent part-time colleagues, full-time and contract Chief Executives earn an average of
37% to 39% more. Similar results are seen for senior executives, where full-time employees
earned 27% than part-timers and 13% more than contract employees. However, the data for
part-time and contract employees at this level should be interpreted with caution due to small
sample sizes.
One of the likely causes behind these pay differences is the level of revenue of the
organization. Only 29% of full-time Chief Executives are employed by organizations with
revenues under $500,000. In comparison, 75% of part-time Chief Executives and 82% of
contract Chief Executives work for organizations of this size, which tend to pay less than larger
organizations. It is important to note that because contract workers are not actually employed
by the organization, the nonprofit usually does not provide benefits and in many cases does
not provide office space or equipment such as computers and cell phones. Instead, many
contract employees must cover these expenses on their own.

earn 14% more than their full-time colleagues. At level 4, compensation for full-time and
permanent part-time employees is roughly equal, while those in contract positions on average
earn 6% to 7% less.
REGIONAL CASH COMPENSATION DIFFERENCES
As illustrated in Exhibit 2-7, two-thirds (66%) of the organizations that participated in the
study are headquartered in Ontario. Strong representation was also received from British
Columbia (16%) and Alberta (9%). This year’s survey saw slightly better representation from
Quebec, Atlantic Canada and Prairies than last year. Altogether, the number of participants
from the “rest of Canada” group more than doubled, accounting for 9% of participants.
The highest pay among Chief Executives is found in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), followed
closely by Alberta and Ottawa. Similar to 2011, in the current study the GTA and Ottawa tend
to be at or near the top of the range for all levels. At the other end of the spectrum, the “Rest
of Ontario” region tends to be among the lowest-paying of all regions at all levels.

III. Cash Compensation and Organizational
Characteristics
There are all kinds of organizational factors that can influence compensation. The following
section examines organizational type, focus and role, jurisdiction, affiliation status, revenue,
number of employees, and unionization of staff.
Chapter Summary
 Average cash compensation for the four management levels is lower among registered
charities than among other nonprofit organizations. The discrepancy for support staff
(level 6) is negligible at 1%, while functional and program staffers (level 5) are actually
paid more in registered charities than in other nonprofits.
 Employees at health organizations rank at or near the top of the sector in terms of cash
compensation. Community benefit organizations and arts & culture organizations also
top the lists for some staff levels.
 Cash compensation is generally higher in organizations whose primary role is
education/training programs or services. Organizations focused on community
programs & services, arts/cultural programming and community social services top the
list for some staff levels.
 Cash compensation generally increases with the breadth of the organization’s
jurisdiction up to the national level. However, average cash compensation tends to be
lower in international organizations than national ones.
 Cash compensation at the four management levels is higher in affiliated organizations
(organizations that operate under the same umbrella name or brand but are run as
separate nonprofit organizations).
 Organization revenue continues to be a key driver of cash compensation for
management-level staff.
 For management-level staff, cash compensation generally increases with the number of
employees in an organization, up to the point of 50 employees. Beyond that size,
compensation levels off or even declines. The exception is Chief Executives (level 1),
where cash compensation continues to rise after 50 employees. The number of
employees does not have a significant impact on compensation for level 5 and 6
employees.
 Of the three levels where there is enough data to report the differences in cash
compensation between unionized and non-unionized employees, the results show that
only functional and program staff receive more cash compensation as a result of
unionization.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
TYPE OF NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION
Seven in ten (70%) participating organizations in this year’s study are registered charities.
Although the “other nonprofits” are still in the minority of participants, the percentage of
organizations in this category has almost doubled since our 2011 survey. For the most part,
professional and/or trade associations were excluded from the survey.
As seen in Exhibit 3-1, average cash compensation for the four management levels tends to be
lower among registered charities than among other nonprofit organizations, although the size
of the disparity ranges significantly depending on the staff level. The difference is most
significant among senior executives (level 2), where those at other nonprofits earn on average
23% more than those at registered charities. The next most significant difference is for Chief
Executives (11%), followed by 7% for management/supervisory staff (level 4) and 6% for senior
management (level 3). The discrepancy for support staff is negligible at 1%, while functional
and program staffers are actually paid more in registered charities than in other nonprofits.

ORGANIZATIONAL FOCUS
Organizational focus refers to the area or sector in which the nonprofit operates. By far the
most common among survey respondents are social services (18%) and health (17%) (see
Exhibit 3-2). Other common areas of focus include children/family (11%), community benefit
(10%), arts & culture (8%) and education (8%). These results are consistent with 2011.
For most staff levels, health organization employees placed at or near the top in terms of cash
compensation. However, community benefit organizations took top spot for senior executive
compensation, while functional and program staff received the highest average cash
compensation in arts & culture organizations.

PRIMARY ROLE OF ORGANIZATION
The role of the organization refers to its function. As Exhibit 3-3 illustrates, organizations that
participated in the survey cover a wide range of primary activities. The most common primary
role by far is community programs & services (25%), followed by education/training programs
or services (13%) and social support services (12%). These are the same three roles that topped
the list in 2011.
Organizations whose primary role is providing education/training programs or services
generally offer higher-than-average cash compensation at all staff levels, with the exception of
level 5. For levels 2 and 3, however, organizations providing community programs & services
paid top dollar. Meanwhile, top spot for compensation at levels 5 and 6 goes to arts/cultural
programming organizations. Organizations that provide community social services are among
the compensation leaders for level 4 staff.

ORGANIZATIONAL JURISDICTION
While the largest segment of participants (40%) consists of local or municipal organizations,
there is also strong representation from regional (17%), provincial/territorial (17%) and national
(19%) groups. Five per cent (5%) are international. Cash compensation by organizational
jurisdiction is summarized in Exhibit 3-4 on the next page.
®

Cash compensation generally increases as the organizational jurisdiction broadens up to the
national level. At the international level, average cash compensation at all levels except 4 and 5
is lower than at national organizations.

AFFILIATION STATUS
Affiliated organizations are those that operate under the same umbrella name or brand but are
run as separate nonprofit organizations. For example, United Way Canada, United Way of the
Lower Mainland and United Way Centraide Ottawa are all part of United Way but are operated
as separate affiliated charities. As seen in Exhibit 3-5, just over one-quarter (26%) of
participating organizations belong to an affiliated group. This is on par with the 2011 study
findings.
Cash compensation at the four management levels is higher in affiliated organizations than
stand-alone organizations, with the largest difference found at level 2 (20% higher). At the
other management levels, the difference ranges from 6% to 8% higher at affiliated
organizations. At level 5, compensation is roughly equal for both types of organizations.
Meanwhile, compensation is higher at stand-alone organizations (2% higher) for level 6.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
As reported in the 2011 study, organization revenue is a key driver of cash compensation for
management-level staff. The strongest correlation between organizational revenue and cash
compensation is found at levels 1 and 2. For example, Chief Executives and senior executives at
organizations with revenues over $5 million earn more than double the cash compensation of
their counterparts in organizations with revenues under $500,000. Meanwhile, senior
managers at the largest organizations earn 75% more than their colleagues at organizations
with revenues under $500,000. For management/supervisory staff, the difference is 36%.
NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES
Another indicator of the size of the organization is the number of employees. While there is
good representation from organizations of all sizes, Exhibit 3-7 on the next page shows that
the largest group consists of organizations with one to five employees (30%), followed by
those with 11 to 20 (20%) and those with six to ten (19%).
For management-level employees, cash compensation generally increases with the size of the
organization up to the point of 50 employees. Beyond that, compensation levels off or even
declines. The exception is compensation for Chief Executives, which continues to rise after 50
employees. Overall, cash compensation for level 5 and level 6 staff does not vary significantly
with the size of organization, although compensation for these groups does show a tendency
to drop in bigger organizations.

UNIONIZED POSITIONS
As seen in Exhibit 3-8, only 8% of participating organizations reported data for unionized staff
(although it is possible they had unionized employees who were not included in their survey).
Of the three levels (levels 4, 5 and 6) where there is enough data to report the differences in
cash compensation between unionized and nonunionized employees, the results show that
functional and program staff are the only ones to earn more as a result of unionization,
enjoying a 5% premium over their non-unionized counterparts. Interestingly, average
compensation for support staff is equal for both groups, while non-unionized
management/supervisory staff earn 12% more than their unionized colleagues.

IV. Impact of Demographics and Experience on Cash
Compensation
Every employee is different. Some employees are older, some are more educated, and still
others have significant management or sector-specific experience. How do these differences
affect remuneration in the nonprofit sector?
This chapter explores the relationship between cash compensation and personal
characteristics such as gender, age, education, related certification and professional
experience. It should be noted that, unlike the previous sections of this report, respondents did
not report demographic data for groups of employees. Accordingly, the sample size (N) equals
the number of people represented in the averages.
Chapter Summary
 The results show that men continue to earn more on average than women at all staff
levels, with the exception of levels 4 and 6. The difference was most significant at the
two most senior levels. However, further analysis shows that the compensation gap
between men and women reflects the fact that men employed in the sector are more
likely to work for larger organizations, which tend to pay better than smaller
organizations.
 At the top three levels of management (levels 1, 2 and 3), compensation increases as
employees grow older, up to the age of 65. Above age 65, compensation levels out. The
most significant increases occur during the early years of employees’ careers. A similar
trend exists for the three lower staff levels, although average income tends to stabilize
sooner in their careers.
 Nonprofit organization employees are generally a well-educated group, with the vast
majority having some form of post-secondary education. In general, higher education
translates to higher compensation. Results show that the relevance of the degree
correlates to higher compensation levels. However, even those with a degree that is not
relevant to their position still tend to earn more than those with no degree at all.
 At all levels, a relevant certification brings higher cash compensation, with senior
executives earning the biggest premium.
 Other experience factors also directly impact compensation. These factors include
discipline-specific experience, experience in the sector, seniority and time spent in
current role.

GENDER
When it comes to gender, the 2012 results show no significant change in the make-up of the
sector. As seen in Exhibit 4-1, the nonprofit sector continues to be predominantly staffed by
women at all levels. That said, the higher the seniority level, the higher the portion of male
employees. More specifically, the portion that is male ranges from 17% at level 6 to 34% at
level 1.

With the exception of levels 4 and 6, results continue to show that men earn more on average
than women at all levels. This is most evident at the two most senior levels where the average
compensation for men is 19% (level 2) to 22% (level 1) higher than for women.
Is the “glass ceiling” alive and well in the nonprofit sector? At first glance, the results would
suggest that it is. Deeper analysis shows, however, that at the higher levels — where the gaps
are most significant — men are more likely to be working in organizations with higher
revenues, where wages generally tend to be higher. At lower levels, where average
compensation is comparable for both genders, both men and women are equally likely to be
®

Page 28
2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
employed by lower-income organizations. In other words, the compensation discrepancies
appear to be a function of organizational size.
AGE
Typically, the more senior a position, the more experience the incumbent requires.
Accordingly, it is no surprise that the average age of staff increases with the seniority of the
position (Exhibit 4-2 on the next page). As in 2011, the only exception is for support staffers
(level 6) who are, on average, a shade older than managers/supervisors (level 4).
At the top three levels of management (levels 1, 2 and 3), compensation increases as
employees grow older, up to age 65. Not surprisingly, the most significant jumps in average
cash compensation are at the younger end of the spectrum, when employees tend to be
rapidly gaining experience. For example, at the Chief Executive level (level 1), average
compensation increases by 30% from the 26-to-35 age group to the 36-to-45 age group. The
jump from this group to the 46-to-55-year-olds is lower, at 12%. Meanwhile, moving to the 56to-65 age group brings with it an average compensation increase of just 8%. A similar trend
also exists for employees in the three lower staff levels, although average income stabilizes
and declines a little sooner in their careers.

EDUCATION
Employees at nonprofit organizations are generally a well-educated group, with the vast
majority having some form of post-secondary education (88% or more at all levels except level
6). In fact, at the three highest levels, more than three-quarters hold a university degree. At
levels 4 and 5, the figure is two-thirds. The big differentiator in education among the different
levels is the proportion holding a graduate degree. Chief Executives are most likely to hold a
master’s degree or higher (35%), followed by those at level 2 (27%) and level 3 (26%). At levels
4 and 5, the percentage holding a graduate degree drops to less than one in five. Education by
staff level is shown in Exhibit 4-3 on the next page.
Does higher education mean more money? According to the survey findings, the answer is
usually yes. At the Chief Executive level, for example, each additional level of education
translates into an increase in average cash compensation of 11% to 16%. At all levels, the
sample size for those with doctorates or PhDs is small, so the results should be interpreted
with caution.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
For a significant majority of those holding a university or college degree, the area of study is
relevant to the position they hold (see Exhibit 4-4). In fact, at the top three management levels
(as well as level 5), roughly four in five of those with a degree indicated it was relevant. The
figure is lowest among support staffers, where only 58% of degree holders have a relevant
degree.
Results show that the relevance of the degree correlates to compensation levels, although the
difference is not always significant. At the Chief Executive level, the difference is 18%. In
contrast, the difference is a negligible 1% at levels 3 and 5. It is important to note that those
with a degree that is not relevant still earn more than those with no degree at all.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
In many disciplines, employees can add to their credentials with an applicable certification. As
illustrated in Exhibit 4-5, half (or just under half) of management-level employees (levels 1
through 4) hold a certification that is relevant to their position. For level 5 (functional and
program staff), this increases to 57%. Only three in ten (30%) support staffers hold a relevant
certification.

At all levels, a relevant certification brings higher cash compensation. The differences are most
notable for senior executives (level 2, 25% higher). For other levels, employees with a relevant
certificate earn 4% to 9% more.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
EMPLOYMENT EXPERIENCE
More experience generally results in higher pay, but what types of experience have the
greatest impact? Experience comes in many forms: experience in the discipline, sector
experience, experience at a seniority level and time spent in a current position or organization.
For all five measures, the number of years of experience generally increases with staff level and
correlates to higher pay.
Unlike other areas in this report where cash compensation was compared group to group, this
section uses correlation analysis to determine if there is a significant relationship between
different measures of experience and cash compensation. The charts and cash compensation
tables for the five experience measures are presented on the following pages (Exhibits 4-6 to
4-10). As expected, the findings regarding the relationship between experience and
compensation are consistent with those identified in the 2011 study. The key findings are as
follows:
 All five measures of experience are directly tied to compensation for Chief Executives,
management/supervisory staff, functional and program staff (level 5) and support staff.
 With the exception of functional and program staff, the most significant experience
factor in determining compensation is years in the current discipline. For level 5 staff,
years in the current discipline ranks second.
 Years spent in the nonprofit sector is also influences compensation at all levels. It is the
top determinant for functional and program staff and ranks second for senior executives
(level 2), management/supervisory staff and support staff.
 For senior management (level 3), cash compensation also correlates with years at the
current seniority level.

V. Performance Incentive Plans
While performance-based compensation and incentives are the norm in many private-sector
organizations, it continues to be an anomaly when it comes to compensation in the nonprofit
sector. This section examines the proportion of nonprofits that include incentive plans as part
of the compensation package for their employees and also looks at the criteria used to
measure performance among different staff levels.
Chapter Summary
 The proportion of respondents reporting that their organization offers a formal
performance incentive plan remains unchanged from last year at 7%.
 Formal incentive plans continue to be most prevalent at the executive and management
levels.
 The likelihood of basing incentive compensation on organizational performance
increases with seniority. In contrast, individual performance incentives are common at
all staff levels.
PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLANS
Performance incentive plans continue to be the exception rather than the rule where Canadian
nonprofits are concerned. Just 7% of respondents reported that their organization provides a
formal performance incentive plan (Exhibit 5-1), which is unchanged from last year. As noted
in the cash compensation chapter, additional or bonus compensation amounts to only 0.2% to
1.4% (depending on staff level) of total cash compensation for the sector as a whole (i.e.,
including those not receiving any).

Formal incentive plans are most prevalent at the executive and management levels (Exhibit 52). At 9%, senior executives (level 2) are most likely to participate in an incentive plan, followed
closely by 8% of managers/supervisors (level 4). Chief Executives (level 1) and senior managers
(level 3) are not far behind, with 6% participating in a formal incentive plan. In contrast,
incentive plans continue to be rare among non-management staff, with just 3% of functional
and program staff (level 5) and 2% of support staff (level 6) participating in such a program.

Among the organizations that offer incentive plans, the criteria used to measure performance
continue to differ significantly among the different staff levels (Exhibit 5-3). The higher the
seniority of the position, the more likely that overall organizational performance will be a
factor in determining incentive compensation. Not surprisingly, departmental performance is
more likely to be used for level 2 and 3 managers, as they tend to be the ones leading the
different departments. Individual performance continues to be commonly used as a metric at
all levels.

VI. Employment Benefits
While most employees consider cash earnings the primary measure of compensation, this is
just one part of the compensation package. Benefits also contribute significantly to the overall
compensation picture. These can include health plans, pensions and RRSP contributions,
education, automobile and perquisites (fringe benefits). This chapter summarizes the different
employment benefits received by employees in the Canadian charitable sector and examines
their value as part of the overall compensation package for different staff levels.
Benefit Value Definitions
In addition to providing a summary of benefits received, this chapter also presents
the average value the benefit adds to the compensation package. For each benefit,
values are presented in two ways:
Among Those Who Receive the Benefit: This amount represents the average value
of the benefit when it is provided. This offers organizations a benchmark to
determine what it should spend on a particular benefit, but it cannot be directly
used to determine the added compensation value that benefits provide at the
sector level.
Among All Staff: This amount averages the value across all employees, including
those who do not receive the benefit. It therefore represents the average
compensation value for benefits in the sector and can be added to total
compensation to determine the average value of the entire compensation package
for the nonprofit sector.
Chapter Summary
Health Benefits:
 A significant majority (75%) of participating organizations provide health benefits to at
least one level of staff. Employees at the five lower levels are more likely to receive a
health benefit than those in the Chief Executive (level 1) position.
Retirement Benefits:
 Retirement benefits are popular among nonprofit employers, although Chief Executives
are significantly less likely to receive the benefit than those in the lower staff levels.
 RRSP plans continue to be the most common retirement benefit offered, with the
proportion of employees at levels 1 to 4 receiving RRSP plans remaining steady since
2011.
 The prevalence of pension plans at most levels is unchanged from 2011. The only
significant change is at level 5, where 41% currently enjoy a pension plan compared to
only 33% in 2011. The proportion of employees offered pension plans ranges from 31%
to 41% at the five lower levels to just 17% of Chief Executives.
®

Page 43
2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
Education
 The vast majority of employees across all staff levels receive some sort of education
benefit from their organization. The dollar value of this benefit increases by staff level,
with the top three management levels receiving approximately $900 to $1100 for
education in the last year.
Automobile
 Automobile benefits are offered to roughly 34% of Chief Executives and 32% of senior
management (level 3). The figure rises to 40% for senior executives (level 2). Not
surprisingly, automobile benefits are somewhat less common for the three lower levels,
ranging from 23% to 27%.
Perquisites
 A significant majority of nonprofit employees receive perks. The value of these perks
increases with seniority.
 Employer-paid conference registration and travel costs continue to be among the top
five perks for all nonprofit employees surveyed. Other common perks across most staff
levels include tuition reimbursement/assistance and employer-paid cell phones or smart
phones for work purposes.

HEALTH BENEFITS
Three-quarters (75%) of participating organizations indicated that they provide health benefits
to at least one level of staff. Overall, the results are fairly consistent with last year, in that
employees at the five lower levels are more likely to receive a health benefit than those in the
Chief Executive position (85% to 93% at levels 2 to 5 versus 75% at level 1) (see Exhibit 6-1).
Health benefits are most prevalent at levels 3, 4 and 5.
The value of health benefits as a percentage of base compensation (when health benefits are
received) is unchanged at 7.4% at the Chief Executive level. For other levels, when offered, this
benefit adds on average 8.2% to 12.2% to the value of the compensation package.

2012 Canadian Nonprofit Sector Salary Survey
The health benefits provided for each staff level are detailed in Exhibits 6-2a and 6-2b on the
following pages. Please note that the cost of these benefits may be paid by employers, paid by
the employee or shared between the two parties. While employee-paid benefits are included in
the results, these benefits do not add monetary value to the overall compensation package,
although they may represent savings to employees who would otherwise have to cover these
costs personally.
For the purpose of this report, health benefits have been categorized into four tiers, as follows:
 Core benefits: These are benefits that are provided to virtually all employees in the
organizations that offer benefits. They include dental plans, prescription drug plans,
extended health care/major medical insurance, benefit coverage for family &
dependents, life insurance/accidental death & dismemberment insurance, and
alternative care (e.g., chiropractic care, massage therapy, naturopathic care, and
acupuncture).
 Secondary benefits: While not offered to all, these benefits are provided by a majority
of organizations. They include vision care, accident insurance for work-related travel,
and employee assistance programs.
 Tertiary benefits: Roughly half of the organizations surveyed provide tertiary benefits
that include short and long-term disability insurance. It should be noted that disability
premiums are often paid by the employee because there are tax implications when they
are paid by the employer.
 Niche benefits: These are benefits that are offered only by a handful of organizations.
For the purpose of this study, the only benefit that falls in this category is survivor
income.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS
While Exhibit 6-3 demonstrates that retirement benefits are common at most levels in the
nonprofit sector, it is interesting to note that Chief Executives continue to be significantly less
likely to receive the benefit than those at lower staff levels. More specifically, just 49% of Chief
Executives are offered retirement benefits in contrast to a range of 68% to 75% for the other
five staff levels.

Although fewer Chief Executives receive retirement benefits, those that do tend to fare slightly
better than other employees, with a percentage of base cash compensation of 5.4% and a cash
value of $5,831. This decreases to 2.7% of base cash compensation or $2,863 when nonrecipients are included.

Retirement benefits for the remaining staff levels range from 4.6% to 5.2% of base
compensation among those who receive the benefit. This decreases to 3.4% to 3.8% when
non-recipients are included.
Exhibit 6-4 provides a detailed view of retirement benefits received at each staffing level,
based on the definitions below.
Retirement Benefit Definitions
RRSP – Contribution: An arrangement where the employer contributes to an
employee’s registered retirement savings plan where the employee is not required
to make a contribution in order to receive the benefit.
RRSP – Matched Contribution: An arrangement where an employer matches (at a
prescribed rate) the contribution made by the employee to the employee’s
registered retirement savings plan.
Defined Benefit Pension Plan: A plan in which the employer guarantees that the
employee will receive a pension with a defined dollar value upon retirement,
regardless of the performance of the underlying investment pool.
Defined Contribution Pension Plan: A plan in which the employer makes
predefined contributions for the employee, but the dollar value of the pension
received by the employee depends on the investment’s performance.

plans has remained steady since 2011 for levels 1 to 4, ranging from 34% total contributions for
Chief Executives to 45% for senior managers. Results for employees at levels 5 and 6 show that
RRSP benefits are somewhat lower than in 2011, at 39% and 32% respectively. Matched
contribution plans continue to be more common than basic contributions at most levels.
At most levels, the prevalence of pension plans is unchanged from 2011. The only significant
change is at level 5, where 41% currently enjoy a pension plan compared to only 33% in 2011.
At the five lower levels, 31% to 41% of employees have a compensation package that includes
a pension plan, while only 17% of Chief Executives receive this benefit. At all levels, defined
benefit pension plans continue to be considerably more common than defined contribution
pension plans.
Health benefits rarely continue after retirement from the nonprofit sector, with 4% or less of
survey participants across all staff levels indicating they receive this benefit.
The average employer RRSP contributions by level are summarized in Exhibit 6-5. The average
value for the top two staffing levels is 4.9%, while levels 3, 4 and 6 sit between 4.3% and 4.4%.
The average employer contribution for level 5 staff is somewhat lower than other levels, at
only 3.9%.

EDUCATION BENEFITS
Education benefits provide value not only to the employee but also to the employer. Generally,
better-trained employees are more productive, work more efficiently and make fewer
mistakes. Accordingly, providing education benefits to employees is also a benefit to the
employer. As Exhibit 6-6 demonstrates, a significant majority (between 80% and 87%) of
employees across all staff levels receive some sort of education benefit from their
organization, usually for ongoing or periodic professional development. Findings are generally
consistent with 2011.

For employees who do receive education benefits, the dollar value tends to decrease across
the staff levels, with the top three levels receiving roughly $900 to $1,100 worth of education in
contrast to $548 to $716 for the lower three staff levels. When the figures are averaged across
all employees, including those who do not receive education benefits, this amount drops
between approximately $75 and $200, depending on level.

AUTOMOBILE BENEFITS
Automobile benefits include employer-covered benefits like parking, vehicle allowances and/or
access to a vehicle for work. As shown in Exhibit 6-7, automobile benefits are offered to
roughly one-third of Chief Executives (34%) and senior management (32%) and to two-fifths
(40%) of senior executives. Not surprisingly, automobile benefits are somewhat less common
for the three lower levels, ranging from 23% to 27%. The average value of the benefit among
those who receive automobile benefits ranges from $629 at level 6 to $2,765 for senior
executives.

However, the overall figures for automobile benefits can be somewhat misleading. As shown in
Exhibit 6-8, while many organizations provide some form of automobile benefit, the result is
largely driven by the number of employees who received paid parking. If parking is excluded,
the proportion of employees receiving automobile benefits ranges from 5% to 14%, depending
on level.
It is also important to keep in mind that for many employees, parking at or near work is already
available for free. For example, only 25% of Chief Executives receive paid parking from their
employers, but another 50% have free parking available. In other words, only 25% have to pay
their own parking. It should be noted that in many cases, paid parking is considered a taxable
benefit.

Following the trend in the 2011 study, a significant majority (83%) of organizations offer a per
kilometre gas allowance to employees for work-related travel. As presented in Exhibit 6-9, just
under half (48%) provide reimbursement at a rate of 36¢ to 45¢ per kilometre, while 37% offer
reimbursement at 46¢ to 55¢ per kilometre.

As in 2011, the sector average of 40¢ per kilometre continues to be well below the rates
permitted by the Canadian Revenue Agency (CRA). According to the CRA website, 2012 rates
are:
 53¢ per kilometre for the first 5,000 kilometres driven
 47¢ per kilometre driven after that
 An additional 4¢ per kilometre for travel in the Northwest Territories, Yukon, and
Nunavut
PERQUISITES
Perquisites or “perks” are fringe benefits not included in traditional compensation and benefits
categories. There are a number of benefits that fit within this category, such as adoption
assistance, fitness club memberships and dues for professional associations or clubs.
A significant majority of employees in the nonprofit sector receive at least some perquisite
benefits, ranging from 70% for support staff to 90% for senior managers. The breakdown of
perk offerings by staff level is summarized in Exhibit 6-10 on the next page. Among those who
receive perks, the average value increases with seniority, ranging from a high of $1,892 for
Chief Executives down to $558 for support staff (level 6).

Exhibit 6-11 on the next pagesummarizes the frequency of different perks received at the
various staff levels. At all levels, employer-paid conference registration and travel costs
continue to be among the top five perks. With the exception of the Chief Executive group,
tuition reimbursement/assistance is also in the top five. Meanwhile, an employer-paid cell
phone or smart phone for work purposes is a top-five perk for all employee levels except
support staff. Other notable findings are summarized below:
 In addition to the benefits listed above, the remaining top five perks offered to Chief
Executives consist of professional dues, a compressed workweek or flextime and
coverage of cell phones or smart phones for personal use. These top-five benefits
remain unchanged from 2011.
 The top five perks for level 4 staff also remain unchanged from the last study. They
consist 0f professional dues and a compressed workweek or flextime, in addition to
those listed above.
 Management employees at levels 2 and 3 continue to receive professional dues as a topfive benefit. New this year for level 2 are maternity/paternity benefits, which edged out
compressed workweeks or flextime which is still top five for level 3.
 Rounding out the top perks most common among level 5 staff are compressed
workweeks, paid leave and maternity/paternity benefits.

SUMMARY OF BENEFIT VALUES
Exhibit 6-12 summarizes the value of the benefits covered in this chapter. As outlined in the
beginning of this chapter, the value stated for “those who receive the benefit” is the average
value of the benefit when it is offered. These values do not represent the entire population and
subsequently are not additive and cannot be used to determine the overall average value of
the compensation package. In contrast, the “among all staff” value represents the average
compensation value of benefits for all employees in the sector. These can be added together
to calculate the total value of benefits provided at each level.

For example, the average total cash compensation for Chief Executives (from Chapter 2) was
$86,461. When we add the average benefit value of $10,830, the total average value of the
Chief Executive compensation package is $97,291 (cash plus benefits).

NOTES
The following notes apply to the compensation tables that follow:
 Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
 Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample
size.
 Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the
table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate
compensation will yield a different answer that does not represent the average variable
pay level.
 Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash
compensation.
 N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of
employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

NOTES
The following notes apply to the compensation tables that follow:
 Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
 Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample
size.
 Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the
table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate
compensation will yield a different answer that does not represent the average variable
pay level.
 Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash
compensation.
 N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of
employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.

Blank cells indicate that there were too few responses to report.
Results where N is less than 25 should be interpreted with caution due to small sample size.
Additional cash compensation ratio is calculated on a case by case basis. Results in the table represent the average of the individual ratios. Calculating based on the aggregate compensation will yield a
different answer that does not represent the average variable pay level.
Bonus/variable pay may include bonus pay, incentive pay or other additional cash compensation.
N refers to the number of respondents reporting. # of people is the number of employees represented as some respondents reported compensation for groups of staff.
