National Security Compensation Sets Record High - Seite 2

Happiness, Satisfaction, and Commitment to the Cleared Industry

As part of this survey, respondents were asked to pick up to three options that would contribute to increased happiness in their roles. For the third year in a row, compensation was selected by over two-thirds of respondents. Next in line were training options, certifications, and remote work.

With the state of the economy, respondents remained a little less motivated to change jobs. 21% said they’re not at all likely to jump ship in 2023 - a 4% bump from last year. But with 79% likely to make a move in the next year, employers have plenty of cleared candidates to recruit.

Meanwhile, over half of respondents (59%) said they were not at all likely to leave the cleared industry in the next five years. Only 13% answered likely or very likely.

“Strong cleared compensation truly points to the stability and strength of the cleared job market,” said Art Zeile, CEO of DHI Group Inc. “This is a community that’s committed to the mission of defending our country and they can do so from a variety of attractive positions. To hire and retain cleared talent employers need to focus on compensation and engagement. The ClearanceJobs Compensation Report shows employers understand that imperative.”

The Security Clearance Compensation report includes cleared compensation by state, occupation, education, security clearance level and other criteria.
