[EXTERNAL SENDER]

Hello all, 

 

I know this is less of a safety question, but I thought those with experience might still be able to provide some support. I am emailing to see if anyone would be willing to share salary ranges. I recently found out the salary of my colleague that acts as both our chemical hygiene officer and lab coordinator and it seemed quite low for the position. However, maybe it is normal. 

 

Some necessary background: 

1) We are a small primarily undergraduate institution (~1500 students). 

2) This individual acts as coordinator for the general chemistry labs as well as chemical hygiene officer for the chemistry department.

3) The department currently has 4 tenured/tenure track chemists and a distinguished affiliate professor.

4) As chemical hygiene officer, this individual handles A) waste for all the labs in the department as well as all the waste for our summer research program (usually ~5 undergraduates a summer), B) safety trainings for our TAs, C) ensures our departmental compliance with regulatory bodies. 

 

Any data or sources would be super helpful : ) 

 

Warmest regards, 

Jonathan
