25th Percentile Salary Guidelines

Position Salary Guidelines 

The data below is derived from the NATA 2021 Salary Survey. All job postings should meet or exceed the 25th percentile for the appropriate job setting. Any postings that do not meet this expectation are subject to review. Employers should know that NATA intends to conduct a new survey in last quarter of 2023/first quarter of 2024. Factors like cost of living increases, etc. should be taken into consideration and figures should be adjusted appropriately when reviewing these results and determining salaries.
