DALLAS – The Foundation for Advancing Security Talent (FAST) has extended the deadline the 2023 Security Industry Compensation & Benefits Benchmarking Study until Friday, Oct. 20.

This survey “will provide invaluable insights into salaries and benefits across the security industry, empowering decision-makers to recruit, hire, and retain top talent effectively,” according to the foundation announcement last month.

“The security industry plays a pivotal role in safeguarding our communities and businesses, and understanding compensation and benefits trends is crucial for its continued growth and excellence,” the FAST announcement says.

“FAST, in collaboration with prominent industry partners such as the Security Industry Association (SIA), Electronic Security Association (ESA), PSA Security Network and Security Sales and Integration, is committed to providing the most comprehensive and accurate data possible.”

“Understanding the dynamics of salary and compensation within the security industry is pivotal for its sustained growth and competitiveness,” says FAST executive director Aiden O’Brien. “Given the enthusiastic response, the deadline for FAST’s 2023 Security Industry Compensation Study has been extended to Oct. 20 to allow for even more participation.”

Widespread responses to the survey are “invaluable in creating a detailed and accurate picture of our industry’s compensation landscape, allowing for a clear benchmark for your business and the industry at large,” he says, calling the effort a “significant initiative” that will “shape the future of our industry.”
