QUESTION:  What background regarding ERI can I share with management when discussing my organization's use of ERI data?

 

ERI Economic Research Institute was founded decades ago and currently serves thousands of corporate subscribers in a role that was once filled (internally) by corporate statisticians, operations researchers, wage economists, industrial engineers, compensation analysts and similar middle level management support positions that have largely disappeared from Human Resources Departments.  At its simplest, ERI collects and conducts salary and cost of living surveys and data and prepares reports and analyses by which managers may make decisions.  ERI is considered a compensation and benefits research outsource.
