2018 Western & Central Wisconsin Wage Survey - You are invited to participate!
New regions added for 2018! Central Wisconsin will now be represented in this survey, so the survey name was changed from the Chippewa Valley & Coulee Region Wage Survey to the Western & Central Wisconsin Wage Survey.
The survey is distributed the week of March 12, due back by May 18 and is published in mid-July. We are proud to be covering employers from nine chambers of commerce including Chippewa Falls, Eau Claire, La Crosse, Marshfield, Menomonie, Portage County, Rice Lake, Wausau, and Wisconsin Rapids. Also involved are the local chapters of Society of Human Resource Management in the Chippewa Valley, La Crosse, Wausau & Winona.
We need area employers to contribute their data in order to keep the wage survey viable and relevant; data is kept confidential. We have made it easy to participate, so please review the instructions and complete the forms.
All documents for survey participation is on the
Eau Claire Area's Chamber website There is a minimal cost to receive the report when it is available in mid-July, and Chamber or CVSHRM membership qualifies businesses for discounted pricing! If you have any questions, please contact Casey Schumacher with the Eau Claire Area Chamber of Commerce via

Bert's Joke of the Month
The rain was pouring down.
There standing in front of a big puddle outside
the pub was an old Irishman, drenched,
holding a stick, with a piece of
string dangling in the water.
A passer-by stopped and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Fishing" replied the old man.
Feeling sorry for the old man, the gent says,
"Come in out of the rain and have a drink with me."
In the warmth of the pub, as they sip their whiskies,
the gentleman, being a
bit of a smart ass, cannot resist asking,
"So how many have you caught today?
"You're the eighth", says the old man.
