Alberta Learning Information Service (ALIS) conducts a survey of wages and salaries in Alberta every two to three years. The 2007 Alberta Wage and Salary Survey covers over 400 occupations and provides information on wages and salaries for full-time and part-time employees in Alberta by occupation, geographic area, and industry group.
The Survey can help Albertans make career and education plans and help organizations determine pay scales and develop effective public policy. It also includes information on skills shortages in Alberta.
