Additional Salary Assessor Topics (Listed Alphabetically)

The Salary Graph is a graphical representation of the salary table displayed and is only valid for individual jobs. When the table in use is Benchmark List or Geographic List, the graph will reflect data for the job/area on the salary table that is highlighted or most recently selected.

The Salary Graph profiles a job so the user can, at a glance, understand how a salary continuously changes as the organization size or years of experience changes. The top curve represents "range maximum" salaries, the middle represents "mean" or "median" salaries, and the bottom curve represents "range minimum" salaries.

To View Dots On the Graph

From the Salaries by Experience/Size table, click the Show Dots button above the graph. To de-select, click the Hide Dots button.

Please Note: Dots are only available for non-executive jobs in the Salary Assessor. Please see the Executive Compensation Assessor for raw data dots on the graph for executive jobs.

Logarithmic X-Axis

By default, the X-Axis of the Salary Graph is setup as a logarithmic axis. That is, X-Axis numbers are evenly spaced along the bottom of the graph, as opposed to being set on the axis according to scale. This allows for a cleaner looking graph.

To De-Select the Logarithmic X-Axis

1.	Click the Annual Base Salaries Graph button.

2.	Deselect Use Logarithmic X-Axis so that it is not checked (only available for executive position titles).
