Calling all distribution companies...

CELRE is currently recruiting new participants for the 2008 Distribution Salary Survey. If your company is a player in the industry and would like to benchmark salaries at all levels from forklift truck driver to warehouse manager, we would like to hear from you.

New participants this year will get the full report free of charge.

In 2007, some of the biggest names in the distribution industry asked CELRE, now part of the XpertHR Group, to collect and analyse data on pay and benefits across the sector.

Among those taking part were Royal Mail/Parcelforce, FedEx, Wincanton, Tesco, Homebase and Waitrose.

The final outcome was a report covering pay and benefits in 31 companies, 582 depots and 44,138 individual employees, with sufficient data to enable county-level reporting for most jobs.

As the original group of sponsors cover the full costs of the survey, new participants this year will not have to pay anything to access the 2008 report. But they will be expected to provide data from their own companies, to help make the database more comprehensive and reliable.

If you are interested in taking part and would like to know more, please call CELRE on 020 8652 8590 citing LOG04 and we will send you a participation pack with all the details you need.

Alternatively, please email us at celre@celre.co.uk, providing your name, job title, company and some idea of the number of distribution staff you employ. Please include our reference number: LOG04.

We need to hear from you by Friday 1 August at the latest.
