2011 Whitley County Occupational Wage and Fringe Benefits Survey for Manufacturing & Transportation Sectors. 

In May 2011, the Whitley Community Economic Development Corporation commission a survey to be conducted by the Community Research Institute of the employer-provided benefits and wage information that companies offer in the Whitley County area. The result of this survey is a detailed analysis which will assist businesses, community leaders, and employees to make informed decisions and aid in planning. 

In January 2010, Community Research Institute conducted a survey, sponsored by WorkOne Northeast, of the employer-provided benefits that companies offer in the 11-county northeast Indiana area. The result of this survey is a detailed analysis which will assist businesses, community leaders, and employees to make informed decisions and aid in planning. In addition to the overall analysis of these responses, this analysis investigated whether fringe benefits differed by classification (exempt and non-exempt).

Additional analysis was done by sub regions: northern counties, western counties, and the central counties. Whitley County is part of the Central Counties, along with Adams, Allen, and Wells Counties. The sub report analyzes employer-provided benefits provided by companies in these four

counties.
