2025 RMCD IEHRA ENERGY INDUSTRY
COMPENSATION SURVEY

We are very excited to announce that the IEHRA Compensation Survey was integrated into Aon’s Radford McLagan Compensation Database (RMCD) in 2024, and it is now known as the RMCD IEHRA Compensation Report.
As a result, in addition to access to the same level of comprehensive compensation data in the energy services and utility sector, IEHRA participants now also have access to all the features of RMCD, which includes a very Energy & Natural Resources Job Module and the Market Practice Studies, and to the capabilities of Aon’s Human Capital Analytics (HCA) Platform. For more information about RMCD, please reach out to Carlos Andina.
In addition to the 2025 RMCD IEHRA Compensation Report, the highlights and trends will be presented at the Conference Workshop during the 35th Annual IEHRA Conference, September 17-19, 2025 in Boston.
