Synthesis of Information Related to Airport Practices. Topic S06-09. Compensation for the Modern Airport Employee
Competition for skilled and professional individuals has increased across all industries, and it has become challenging for airports to recruit and retain individuals that are essential to keeping an airport running (e.g., operational and maintenance staff). These airport employees usually work in a 24-hour environment, and airports have found it difficult to increase pay to competitive levels compared to other industries. This has made it challenging to attract new employees and retain current employees. Therefore, it is important for the organization to consider all options when developing or revising employee benefits (e.g., pay, time off, retirement, health & wellness). The objective of this synthesis is to describe innovative employee benefit incentives airports use to attract and retain skilled employees.
