CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
Survey Methods
T
his report summarizes the
results of a subsample of
credit unions participating in
the 2013-2014 CUNA Staff Salary Report, an online survey
conducted by CUNA Research
in Madison, Wis., between
January and April 2013.
In January, CUNA Research
sent invitations to participate
in the survey to 5,625 affiliated credit unions with $1 million or more in assets (based
on third-quarter 2012 NCUA
5300 Call Report data).
A human resource (HR)
professional or the CEO/manager at each credit union in
the sample received a letter
with instructions for completing the survey online.
For those credit unions with
available email addresses,
the HR professional or CEO/
manager received an email
with the Web address and
instructions for completing
the survey.
As an incentive, credit
unions were offered a discount on the final report if a
6
representative responded to
the survey.
CUNA Research monitored
responses and, after three
weeks, sent another letter
and printed survey to credit
unions that didn’t respond
to the initial mailing, again
requesting their participation
and providing instructions.
About three weeks later,
a follow-up postcard and
email went to sampled credit
unions that had not yet participated in the survey.
By March 2013, the cutoff
for inclusion in the report,
CUNA Research received 717
usable surveys from the 3,190
credit unions with $1 million
to $35 million in assets, a 22%
response rate.
The data was stratified by
assets and weighted to adjust
for the over- or under-representation of credit unions in
any strata.
Weighting is a standard
survey analysis procedure
designed to increase the reliability of the survey results. It
CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
ensures that the results aren’t
biased by a specific group of
credit unions.
The salary, bonus, incentive,
total variable pay, and total
cash compensation averages
also were weighted by the
number of employees in
each position.
This weighted average
comes closest to the amount
earned by the average
employee within each job
position, rather than what the
average credit union pays for
that specific job position.
CUNA Research asked
credit unions to provide
compensation data effective
Jan. 1, 2013. In examining the
data from responding credit
unions, staff verified extreme
outliers. If the data point
appeared to be an invalid
response, it was eliminated
from the final data set.
Credit unions with established formal salary ranges
were asked to report the
minimums, midpoints, and
maximums of their formal sal-
ABOUT THE REGIONS
ary ranges for each position.
CUNA Research included only
responses from credit unions
reporting all three figures,
ensuring these were formal
salary range figures and not
the highest and lowest salaries paid to job incumbents.
CUNA Research included
only responses where the
midpoint differed by less than
$2,000 from the average of the
minimum and the maximum of
the formal salary range.
Because the sample was
limited to credit unions with
$1 million to $35 million
in assets, all references to
“credit unions” in the following summaries refer to that
universe of credit unions.
Based on a sample of 717
respondents, the maximum
sampling error for the overall
percentages is ± 3.2% at a
95% confidence level. That is,
in 95 of 100 similar samples,
the overall percentages would
fall within 3.2 percentage
points of those observed in
the data tables.

CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
Executive Summary
Figure 1
P
ay increases appear to be
back, as numerous studies
point to a rise in the number
of organizations providing pay
raises in 2012 and 2013. The
amount of pay increases is
also growing, with increases of
about 3% projected for 2013.
These trends, coupled
with an increase in hiring,
put pressure on all organizations to follow suit. They also
should spur credit unions
to review their compensation programs and retention
strategies. Those that aren’t
rewarding their employees
competitively run the risk of
losing them to an employer
who will.
Salary and benefit
actions
In 2012, 75% of credit unions
with assets of $1 million to
$35 million gave a salary/
wage increase to at least
some of their employees
(Figure 1). The prevalence
of pay increases continues
its slow upward trend from
8
68% in 2010 and 71% in 2011.
A similar percentage (74%)
anticipate providing base pay
increases in 2013.
The likelihood of giving pay
increases in 2012 increases
with the size of the credit
union. At least 90% of those
with assets of $25 million to
$35 million increased salaries/
wages in 2012.
In addition, credit unions
overall—those with assets
of $1 million or more—are
slightly more likely than those
with $1 million to $35 million
in assets to have provided salary/wage increases in 2012,
at 80%.
Further accentuating wage
growth, the percentage
of credit unions initiating
a wage freeze for at least
some employees continues
to decrease. In 2012, 43% of
credit unions with assets of
$1 million to $35 million initiated a wage freeze for at
least some of their employees. This figure decreased
from 52% in 2010 and 47%
in 2011. Expect this trend to

However, this group is
slightly more likely than credit
unions overall (those with
assets of $1 million or more) to
have initiated a wage freeze in
2012, at 34%.
Salary/wage increases
Credit unions were slightly
more likely to give pay
increases to full-time nonmanagement employees
than to CEOs and managers
in 2012. Among those with
assets of $1 million to $35 million, 75% gave pay increases
to full-time nonmanagement
employees in 2012, while
about 65% gave pay increases
to CEOs and managers.
The percentages of credit
unions with budgeted pay
increases for 2013 are similar
to the actual 2012 levels for
each of the employee groups.
For full-time employees,
2012 average salary/wage
increases were 2.2% for management employees and
9
2.3% for nonmanagement
employees (Figures 2 and 3).
Budgeted salary/wage
increases for 2013 are similar
to 2012 figures. However,
anticipated pay increases for
2014 are lower, at 2.1 for both
employee groups.
In 2012, CEOs received an
average pay increase of 2.3%.
Budgeted CEO base pay
increases for 2013 are similar,
at 2.2%. Anticipated CEO pay
increases for 2014 are lower,
at 2%.
2012 average base pay
increases for credit unions
with assets of $1 million to
$35 million were lower than
those of credit unions overall
(those with assets of $1 million or more) for each of three
employee groups.
Among those with assets of
$1 million or more, 2012 average pay increases were 2.6%

CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
for management employees,
2.5% for nonmanagement
employees, and 2.9% for
CEOs.
Hiring plans
Similar to the prior three
years, 20% of credit unions
with assets of $1 million
to $35 million plan to hire
full- and/or part-time staff in
2013.
This figure increases from
4% among credit unions with
$1 million to $2 million in
assets to about 45% among
those with assets of $25 million to $35 million.
About 10% of these credit
unions with $1 million to $35
million in assets plan to hire
full-time employees in 2013.
Almost 15% plan to add
part-time employees to their
payroll in 2013. On average,
these credit unions plan to
add 1.2 employees in each
employment group.
Credit unions overall (those
with assets of $1 mil-lion or
more) are slightly more likely
than those with $1 million to
$35 million in assets to add to
their payrolls in 2013, at 25%.
Succession planning
Companies with formal succession plans avoid losing
valuable time in a search for
viable candidates, which can
take several months or longer. A void in leadership can
have a detrimental effect on
organizational performance,
and can cause the organization to miss valuable opportunities.
Two-thirds (64%) of credit
unions with $1 million to $35
million in assets have formal
succession plans, while an
additional 16% expect to
establish them by year’s end
2013.
Six percent of CEOs of
credit unions with $1 million
to $35 million in assets plan
to retire in the next two years,
and only 1% plan to leave for
any other reason.
Almost 30% of CEOs are
nearing retirement age—18%
are ages 60 to 64 and another
10% are 65 or older. The average age is 53.6.
The average age of CEOs
of credit unions overall (those
with assets of $1 million or
more) is similar, at 54.2
When replacing their CEOs,

CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
credit unions with assets of
$1 million to $35 million are
most likely to give internal
applicants preference, at
51%. Almost 40% post the job
internally and externally at the
same time, while only 7% prefer solely external applicants.
These figures are similar to
those of credit unions overall
(those with assets of $1 million or more).
Incentive/bonus
awards
Variable pay (incentives and/
or bonuses) continues to be a
popular way to reward
employees without increasing fixed costs. Among credit
unions with assets of $1 million to $35 million, 55% offer
variable pay to their full-time
employees.
This figure generally
increases with the size of
the credit union, from 19%
among those with $1 million
to $2 million in assets to at
least 70% among those with
assets of $20 million to $35
million.
Variable pay is more common among credit unions
overall. Among those with
$1 million or more in assets,
66% offer variable pay to
their full-time employees.
Bonus awards (after-the-fact
11
rewards for a job well done)
continue to be the most common form of variable pay
among credit unions. Among
those with assets of $1 million
to $35 million, 50% provided
bonuses to full-time employees in 2012.
Credit unions are somewhat
more likely to provide bonus
awards to managers than to
nonmanagement employees.
Almost 50% provided bonuses to management employees, while 42% provided them
to nonmanagement employees (Figure 4).
Nearly 20% of credit unions
offer incentive payments
(awards tied to preset performance criteria) to their fulltime employees. This figure
generally increases with the
size of the credit union, from
3% among those with assets
of $1 million to $2 million
to 53% among those with
assets of $30 million to
$35 million.
Credit unions are equally
likely to offer incentive payments to nonmanagement
employees as to managers, at
about 15% each (Figure 4).
These figures are comparable to those from 2011.

Note: As is the case with all
the data in this report, the
averages for respondents’
characteristics are weighted
by asset size.
As shown in the table, “Survey respondents by region,
members, bond, loans, and
services,” a higher percentage of credit unions in the

East North Central region
than in any other region.
In contrast, the lowest percentages of credit unions in
the sample are located in
the New England and Pacific
regions.
Asset size
Number of members
Overall, the average
asset size of credit unions
responding to this survey is
$12,495,326. The distribution
of respondents by asset size
can be found in the “Assets”
table.
Credit unions in the Pacific

Common bond
Similar to past years, most
credit unions—more than twothirds—in the sample have an
occupational common bond.
Considering the type of
occupational common bond,
these credit unions are more
likely to have a single-group
occupational common bond
(39%) than an occupational
common bond with multiple
select employee groups
(SEGs) (31%).
The next most common
type of common bond is
community, at nearly 25%.

Branch offices
Overall, 83% of credit unions
in the sample don’t have a
branch office other than the
main branch, and 12% have
only one additional branch
office. Only 5% have two or
more branch offices.
Loans outstanding
Credit unions in the sample have an average of
$6,211,583 in loans outstanding. This ranges from
$718,021 among credit unions
with $1 million to $2 million in
assets to $15,229,305 among
credit unions with $30 million
to $35 million in assets.
The average credit union in
the sample has a 57.4% loanto-share ratio.
Services offered
Credit unions in the sample
offer an average of 7.5 of
the 19 services asked about
on the survey. This average ranges from 1.5 among
credit unions with $1 million
to $2 million in assets to 12.6
among those with $30 million
to $35 million in assets.
Overall, 17% of credit
13
unions in the sample offer
none of the 19 services listed
on the survey. This percent-
age is noticeably higher
among those with assets of
$5 million or less.

Administrative Issues
A
s your credit union
prepares for its next
round of salary decisions,
it’s helpful to see how other
credit unions administer
their salary plans. These
trends and corresponding
data offer useful peer
comparisons.
Salary structure
More than half (55%) of
credit unions with at least
one full-time employee have
adjusted their salary structures since January 2012,
including 14% that had
already adjusted their
salary structures for 2013
at the time the data was
collected.
Formal salary ranges
Twenty percent of credit
unions in the study have formal salary ranges. The percentage of credit unions with
formal salary ranges increases
as asset size increases—from
3% among credit unions with
22
$1 million to $2 million in
assets to 53% among those
with assets of $30 million to
$35 million.
Among those with formal
salary ranges, the average
percentage increase for the
salary range structure in 2012
was 1.1% for management
and 1.4% for nonmanagement employees.
Salary range increases budgeted for 2013 are 1.3% for
management and 1.5% for
nonmanagement employees.
In addition, anticipated 2014
salary range increases are
1.4% for management and
1.7% for nonmanagement
employees.
CU employment
Nearly 90% of credit unions
with $1 million to $35 million in assets have at least
one full-time employee (“CU
employment”). These credit
unions employ an average of
4.7 full-time workers—ranging
from 1.2 among credit unions
with $1 million to $2 million
in assets to 11.7 among those
CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
with $30 million to $35 million
in assets. These credit unions
average 0.3 to 0.4 full-time
employees per $1 million in
assets.
About 10% of credit unions
with $1 million to $35 million
in assets plan to add full-time
employees to their payroll
in 2013. On average, these

credit unions plan to add 1.2
full-time employees.
Two-thirds (65%) of credit
unions with $1 million to
$35 million in assets have at
least one part-time employee.
They have an average of 1.4
part-time employees. Overall,
they average 0.2 part-time
employees per $1 million in
assets.
Almost 15% percent of
credit unions with $1 million
to $35 million in assets plan
to add part-time employees
to their payroll in 2013. They
plan to add, on average,
1.2 part-time positions.
No more than 4% plan to
reduce full- and/or part-time
staff in 2013.
Following historical trends,
credit union employees are
predominately female.
Among CEOs leading
credit unions with $1 million to $35 million in assets,
females outnumber males
by nearly a 3-to-1 margin. The
likelihood that the CEO is
male generally increases
as asset size increases, reaching almost 50% at credit
23
unions with $30 million to $35
million in assets.
In addition, at least 70%
of executive vice presidents,
chief financial officers, and
chief operations officers in
credit unions with $1 million
to $35 million in assets are
female.
Workweek
The average standard workweek for full-time employees
at credit unions with $1 million to $35 million in assets is
38.4 hours. Most credit unions
(63%) operate with 40-hour
workweeks.
On average, credit union
CEOs work 38.8 hours each
week. CEOs of credit unions
with $1 million to $2 million
in assets have the shortest
schedules, averaging 25.1
hours weekly.
Hours of operation among
credit unions with $1 million
to $35 million in assets
average 35 hours a week for
walk-in business and 42
hours a week for drive-up
business.
CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
Expenses
Operating expenses among
credit unions with $1 million
to $35 million in assets averaged $473,404 in 2012.
Salaries account for an average of 42% of total operating
expenses in credit unions with
assets of $1 million to $35 million, and benefits account for
an average 8.2%.
These credit unions spent
an average of $183,900 on
salary expenses in 2012.
The average salary expenses
increased with asset size,
from $29,626 among credit
unions with $1 million to
$2 million in assets to
$484,279 among those with
$30 million to $35 million
in assets.
Additionally, credit unions
averaged $47,829 in benefits
expenses in 2012. The average amount ranged from
$2,991 among credit unions
with $1 million to $2 million
in assets to $135,643 among
those with $30 million to
$35 million in assets. Credit
unions spent an average of
$9,797 per full-time employee
on benefits in 2012.
When expressed as a
percentage of total gross
income, salary and benefits
expenses account for 34.5%
and 7.2% of that total, respectively.
Almost 65% of credit unions
with $1 million to $35 million in assets have a sponsor.
But few (no more than 3% of
those with sponsors) report
that their sponsor pays for any
portion of the credit union’s
salary or benefits expenses.
Only 3% of responding
credit unions report their
employees are unionized.
Base salary
comparisons
The tables in this section illustrate the 2013 and 2012 average and median base salaries
for credit union positions.
While it’s helpful to observe
national trends, these comparisons are provided for informational purposes only.
These trends reflect the
prevalence of wage increases,
the incidence of turnover,
and, occasionally, competition for candidates to fill a
particular position.
As you review these tables,
please note:
n The increases (or decreases)
from year to year are based
on the aggregate of all salaries and don’t reflect individual wage increases. So don’t
use these figures to compute
annual salary/wage increases.
n Actual wage increases are
your best guide to annual pay
increase decisions.
Find average wage increases for management and nonmanagement employees in
the Executive Summary on
page 11.

own salary ranges around a
chosen midpoint.
Note: The average mini-
mums, midpoints, and maximums of executive management formal salary ranges
tend to increase as assets
increase.
It’s important to look at
the appropriate asset
category when comparing
your credit union’s formal
salary ranges with national
averages. Find this data in

CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
How to Use the Data Tables
T
he average salaries
for most credit union
positions tend to increase
as credit union asset size
increases.
This also is true for the average minimums, midpoints,
and maximums of formal salary ranges; average incentives;
bonuses; total variable pay;
and total cash compensation
(base pay plus incentives and/
or bonuses).
Therefore, it’s important to
look at the appropriate asset
category when evaluating
your credit union’s compensation figures.
Asset size also closely correlates with the number of
members, full-time employees, services offered, and
loans outstanding. Salaries
tend to increase as these
measures of credit union size
increase.
The average salaries of
credit union executive management employees tend to
vary by region. In addition to
obvious differences in the cost
of living, part of this variation
results from asset size variation
among credit unions within
each region.
28
Because larger credit
unions are more likely than
smaller ones to have employees with college degrees filling the positions discussed in
this report, credit union asset
size also inflates the relationship between management
salaries and educational
attainment.
Evaluating management salaries
The “overall” salary figures in
this report shouldn’t be used
to establish manager/CEO or
other management salaries
in your credit union. While
“overall” average salaries
are useful to glean industry
trends, these averages can be
misleading because they’re
composite values. They overstate the pay levels in small
credit unions and understate
pay levels in large credit
unions.
In addition, these averages
reflect the incidence of the
various positions in credit
unions of different asset sizes.
For example, chief information officers (CIO) have higher
average salaries overall than
CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
other executive managers
because they’re more common among larger credit
unions.
When salaries are compared within asset categories, CIO salaries actually often
are lower than those for
other executive management
positions.
Instead of looking at overall salaries, follow these four
steps:
1. Compare salaries by
duties performed rather than
by job title, because credit
union job titles vary substantially. Job descriptions follow
the data tables for each job
title. Before using a particular job title, look at the job
description for that position
to see if it fits.
You might not find a perfect
match, so use the job title
with the job description that
comes closest to the position
you’d like to compare. If the
position spans the duties of
more than one title, choose
the title associated with the
duties performed the majority of the time or the highest
level of responsibility, if the
position involves manage-
ment or supervisory functions.
2. Find the salary for your
credit union’s asset size
group within the appropriate
table. Assets are the most
important determinant of
salaries for management.
3. Base your comparisons
on the average or choose
one of the percentiles. (Salaries line up from lowest to
highest—from 1 to 100. For
example, the 25th percentile
is the 25th in line from the
lowest salary level; 75% of the
salaries are higher than this
salary level.)
Top performers in similar credit unions generally
receive salaries in the 75th or
90th percentile. On the other
hand, for a poor performer,
use the 25th percentile as a
basis for comparison.
In addition, you can use
the percentiles to reflect your
credit union’s market pricing strategy. For instance, if
your credit union pays above
market for the position, you
should use the 75th or 90th
percentiles. Conversely, use
the 25th percentile for a
below-market strategy. You
can use the average or the
29
median for a meet-the-market
strategy.
The average salary is a simple arithmetic average. The
median is the 50th percentile.
The average can be skewed
by very low or very high salaries. If there is a substantial
difference between the average and median, the median
is the more reliable figure.
4. Adjust the appropriate
salary for geographic location. Look at the salary increments by community size
and main office location in
the lower panels of the table.
Generally, geographic
adjustments are small compared with the changes
between asset groups. If the
salary for your geographic
area differs by more than
10% from the salary you
chose for comparison, adjust
the salary appropriately.
Evaluating nonmanagement salaries
For nonmanagement personnel, the “overall” salary
figures will sometimes meet
your needs—particularly for
entry-level jobs. But make
CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
sure you examine differences
by assets and geographic
location.
Follow these four steps:
1. Compare salaries by
duties performed rather than
by job title because, just as
with management positions,
job titles vary substantially.
Use the job descriptions to
ensure a good fit. Generally,
80% comparable duties is
considered a good match.
You might not find a perfect match; use the job title
with the job description that
comes closest to the position
you’d like to compare. If the
position spans the duties of
more than one title, choose
the title associated with the
duties performed the majority
of the time.
2. Look first at the “overall”
average salary, then at the
average salary in your credit
union’s asset size group,
within the appropriate table.
If the average salary for your
asset group differs by 10% or
more from the overall average salary, use the salary for
your asset group.
3. Base your comparisons
on the average, 25th, 50th,
75th, or 90th percentiles.
As with management salaries, you can use these pay
levels to differentiate high
performers and low performers, as well as to reflect your
credit union’s market pricing
strategy.
4. Adjust the appropriate salary for geographic
location. Look at the salary
increments by community
size and main office location
in the lower panels of the
table.
Generally, these adjustments are small compared
with the changes between
asset groups. If the salary for
your geographic area differs
by more than 10% from the
salary you chose for comparison, adjust the salary
appropriately.
Reading data tables
Here are explanations of the
terms used in the data tables:
n N refers to the number of
responding credit unions,
which is displayed in all
tables. Insufficient data is
noted in categories where
low participation compromis-
30
es the validity and confidentiality of the information.
n Overall refers to all
credit unions responding;
the various subcategories
include only the responding
credit unions within those
categories.
n Average refers to a simple
arithmetic average.
n Percentiles illustrate the
range of pay when ranked
from lowest to highest.
The 25th percentile is the
25th from the bottom, while
the 75th percentile is the
75th from the bottom.
n Median refers to the 50th
percentile, or the midpoint
when pay is ranked from lowest to highest.
n Salaries refer to annual base
salaries excluding incentives,
bonuses, and other forms of
pay.
n Incentives are rewards
based on preset performance
criteria, in addition to base
pay. Only those credit unions
reporting an incentive payment factor into the average.
n Bonuses are after-the-fact
rewards for a job well done,
in addition to base pay.
Only those credit unions
CUNA STAFF SALARY REPORT tLESS THAN $35 MILLION IN ASSETS
reporting a bonus payment
factor into the average.
n Variable pay refers to
the sum of incentive plus
bonus pay. The average total
variable pay doesn’t equal
the average bonus plus the
average incentive because
many credit unions provide
only one type of variable
pay.
n Total cash compensation refers to base pay plus
variable pay.
n Salary ranges refer to
formal salary ranges—
established minimums,
midpoints, and maximums
for each position—not the
highest and lowest salary
paid to job incumbents.
n Number of branch offices
is an independent variable
included in the data tables.
This variable includes the
main branch. Thus, “1”
means there are no branch
offices.
n Region is an independent
variable included in the data
tables. The data tables’
footnotes and the “About
the Regions” section on
p. 7 explain the regional
divisions.
