As a component manufacturer (CM) employer, remaining competitive with other employers in your market is a very difficult task. Today’s labor market is incredibly fierce, and having good information about what others are offering can give you a leg up on establishing your own company’s practices. It is critical to know where your organization stands with regard to wages, benefits, and incentives related to the work tasks being accomplished.  

One valuable source of such information is SBCA’s Wage & Benefit Survey (WBS). For decades, this survey has invited CMs to share what they do in a secure and completely anonymous way. The data is then aggregated with all other CM participants, and the resulting report provides robust benchmarking information on everything from hourly wages to benefits packages.  

In 2024, SBCA simplified the survey to make it more approachable while still providing significant value. The new survey format was very well received and, as a result, SBCA will continue with the new streamlined format with 2025 introducing additionally condensed and fewer questions.  

While all CMs are strongly encouraged to participate, participation is voluntary and anonymous. The only way to receive the final report with aggregated information is to participate in the survey!  

Access the WBS survey form here: www.sbcacomponents.com/2025-wbs.  
The deadline for WBS submissions is Monday, March 31, 2025.
