According to the latest Contractor Compensation Quarterly (CCQ) published by PAS, Inc., contractors are projecting 2025 construction staff wages to increase an average of 4.07%, as reported by over 350 companies in the 43rd edition of PAS’s Construction/Construction Management Staff Salary Survey. Typically, projected increases are .3% to .5% higher by year end, so there is a good chance that pay will be slightly higher by year end. According to WorldatWork, across all industries, exempt professionals saw increases of 3.9% in 2024 and are projected to see increases of 3.8% in 2025.
Jeff Robinson, president of PAS, will present again this year at the AGC Construction Workforce & HR Conference in November, exploring the most recent compensation practices and trends in the industry. The conference will again focus on the intersection of HR and workforce development in our industry. The program will feature a multi-track educational program that includes sessions focused on HR practices, while others will highlight workforce development strategies. Some sessions will cover both.
