Do the salary figures include benefits?📊

Every single salary report now includes benefits information! This information was rolled out as part of our ChurchSalary 3.1 release in August 2026.

However, please note that the dollar amounts for Benefits are detailed in a separate section.

As such, outside of the new enhanced Benefits section, every single number reflects total salary.

The enhanced Benefits section inside of every Report app includes a list of average costs to the church. It answers the question, “How much does it cost the church to provide this benefit?”

We have detailed the locations where members can find benefits information below:

Both Basic and Expanded members can view the average cost of benefits inside of the new enhanced Benefits section (see screenshot below).

These dollar amounts capture the average cost of providing each benefit for similar employees (i.e., same position and same status [FT/PT]).

Pro or higher members can go deeper and view sample size and confidence interval values for each of the average costs inside of the enhanced Benefits section when they mouseover a figure.

The section looks identical, but interacting with the numbers will reveal these underlying statistical calculations. The larger the sample size and the lower the confidence interval, the more confidence you should place in the average as a reliable measurement.

Pro+ members will not find a series of averages and confidence intervals included in the Salary Table app. Instead of a “Coming Soon” section, the app will list out these two calculations for each benefit in order. Pro+ members can store and use these values using the CSV download button.

Pro or higher members will see a summary of the total benefits for the 3–5 most similar employees in the results section of the Market Survey Match application. Each employee that is listed as a match will include a summary of their total compensation package including total salary and total benefits (if the information has been provided).
