The 2021 Wage and Benefit Survey was accomplished under the direction of Dr. Murat Arik at MTSU’s Business & Economic Research Center (BERC). To make these results broadly useful and locally meaningful, BERC compiled multiple reports targeting various geographic subregions. Reports are available focused on eight smaller geographic areas as well as reports for larger regions, Upper Cumberland, Southern and Northern Middle, and Nashville Partnership 2030.
Because of a broad partnership and the expertise of BERC, the 40 counties in Middle Tennessee now have a reliable dataset that can assist industries in making informed staffing decisions as well as prospective companies looking to locate in the area. This year over 300 industries participated that employee over 53,000 Tennesseans.
