The 2009 SLA Salary Survey format has been modified from past years. The Salary Survey is now in a Primary Job Function mini-report format (17 Primary Job Function mini-reports for the U.S. and six Primary Job Functions for Canada). Each mini-report is available individually for sale. The Comprehensive Report comprises all 17 United States and six Canada mini-reports based on the SLA Annual Salary Survey that was conducted during July and August 2009.
Note: The 2009 SLA Salary Survey is only available in PDF format.
