Important Update on Russia Data

We would like to make you aware that we have made a decision to not publish market data for the Russia market starting with the 2022-2023 July publication, and until further notice. This decision was not made lightly. The combination of the evolving sanctions environment and decisions being made by international firms regarding their continued operations in Russia - against the backdrop of the ongoing situation in Russia and Ukraine — has created an uncertain business, HR and compensation environment, which means we would be unable to guarantee the quality of data. If you are a client that will be directly impacted by this decision, your sales account manager will be following up with you shortly to discuss your options.


Training Resources and Support

You can bookmark our Radford Network Knowledge Base to easily access it at any time to search for input and output resources, network tools, training videos, and more. For example, we have webinar recordings including "Network Tour", "Quick Benchmarks and Job Matrix", and "Market Queries and Peer Groups." We also have a number of new articles to read like our "Client Insights and Communications" article. Of course you can always log into the Radford Network to access even more resources— like our recently updated "Input Overview" and "Job Matching Overview" videos.

For clients that have purchased Peer Group functionality, you can now create, save and run peer group reports on-demand inside the Radford Network. After creating peer groups in the peer group library you can access peer group information through Market Queries, alongside your standard industry- and country-based reports. To get started using this exciting new feature, you can visit the new Radford Network Knowledge Base at any time and search for “Peer Group” to access training videos and FAQs. We would also like to remind you that your peer groups may be eligible for a refresh following our latest publication update.

As always, don’t hesitate to contact your survey consultant, with any questions about the Radford Network or the Radford Global Compensation Database.

Thank you,
The Radford Platform Team
